Oct 13, 2008 On draught at the Grays Tied House just west of Madison, Wisconsin. Pours a hazy, unfiltered golden pale brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a thin white ring and no lacing. Aroma of coriander, cloves, some banana esters, orange zest and a touch of bubble gum. Taste is medium bodied, very light carbonation with flavors of mostly yeast, whet malt, coriander and a touch of orange zest. Finish is semi-dry with a lingering yeast and light wheat malt aftertaste. A touch heavy on the yeast flavor but still a nice dry witbier.

Aug 18, 2008 I do believe this is the first time I’ve seen this beer. Sampled on draught at the brewery. Poured a cloudy golden colour with a large white head. Aroma is fruity, wheat- orange peel, coriander and spice on the nose. Taste is pleasent. Plenty of wheat and creamy flavors on the palate.

Mar 29, 2005 english pint / spicy, orange, grain aroma. fizzy pour. slightly active, slightly hazy, straw body. big, airy, and loud white head. fizzy mouthfeel, a bit prickly, a bit cloying--not smooth, and i almost have to chew it down... ugh. slightly spicy wheat with orange. nothing special, nothing great, but not bad.

Feb 28, 2005 I usually like the Witbiers, but for some reason, this one was not that impressive. Just a nice light beer with the orange peel flavor. Nice.

Jun 7, 2004 Very pale straw color, quickly dissipating effervescent head. Stale, grainy aroma of old coriander. Flavors are a little better; sweet orange and slightly malty. A bit stickier than this style should be.

Feb 24, 2004 It seems that Belgian and Belgian style beers are a problem for me. This beer looked good in the glass but beyond that it was not to my tastes. Whether it was the sweetness or the spices, I don't know. Just didn't like this.

Jan 1, 2004 Dull hay color, huge head; looks weak to me. Nose faint, fresh grass and lemons. Weak yeastiness, caramel and lemon going down; rather soda-like.
