Commercial Description:
The first thing you'll notice about this Belgian style white ale is the aroma from the orange peel, coriander and chamomile. Unmalted wheat and oats give it a firm milky body and grainy flavor while the yeast contributes a quenching spiciness. Overall an effervescent and refreshing brew.

On tap at the brewpub on 10/14/07: Pale golden pour has a wispy-lacing froth of white head. Citrusy coriander nose has a pale malty sweetness and authentic lightly doughy Belgian yeast. Body starts with a refreshing light sweetness and crisp, mild orange and lemon citrus balance. A nice witbier, although it could use a little more body.

Murky and cloudy yellow with a large head. Mild flavor initially, then a very pronounced sour lemon, soap and spiced pine flavor. Not getting the chamomile, though, only in the nose with a big floral coriander aroma. Good stuff.

Draught. Head is mostly diminishing. Body is hazy light yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted grain), trace hops (flowers), with notes of ginger ale and lime zest. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Light to medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Flimsy but ok, very soda-like.

Tap @ CooperSmiths: Poured a hazy light pale yellow color with a small white head. Wheaty citrus aroma with a hint of clove. the wheaty flavor had lemons and oranges. Light spice and a hint of banana. Semi-dry with a lively mouthfeel. Light body and very refreshing.

CBF 2005: Cloudy yellow. Light body. Notes of coriander, passion fruit, banana, white pepper, ginger, flowers, chamomile and tea. Very light bitterness (not enough) and somewhat drying. Rather soda-like; specifically, ginger ale.

Strange neon-yellowish color. Chamomile and little else in the aroma, perhaps some husky, grainy malts. Strange use of spice as it tastes like chamomile and ginger and skunky grains. Too sweet and it’s dry. Not good. I’m shocked they are even serving this stuff to be honest.
