Apr 30, 2008 Beautiful pour, but what stands out is the aroma. A unique balance of the citrus and spices is evident to the nose right from the start. The flavor is first strong with cirtus, almost a lemon-lime, then is soothes with nice blend of spices. Very nice. Great for the Summer.

May 24, 2008 12 oz bottle. Surprised to see so few ratings. This beer pours a hazy orange body with very small white head. There is some yeast sediment on the bottle of the bottle, as well as the bottom of my glass by the time I finish. The aroma is spice, yeast, and maybe some coriander - pretty accurate for the style. The taste is very smooth with some notes of spice and citrus and even some hop - but just slightly. Great witbier - really enjoyed this one.

Apr 5, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured unfiltered with a hazy golden/honey color. Lacing falls quickly, minimal white. Aroma is similar to Sunset Wheats famous fruity pebbles aroma, only less obvious. Coriander, orange peel, very light and pleasant. A rather thick body, in relation to the style, that is vivacious with carbonation. Bread and yeast are noticeable in the mouth. Spices, banana, and orange notes are pleasantly scattered around this rather tart witbier. A bit dry almost reaching a sour finish, but mellows out just before it does. An interesting and excellent take on the style.

Apr 13, 2008 Two words, CORIANDER BOMB. Good for me because I love coriander. There are some muted lemon (not so citric) and sweet Belgian notes but the coriander really dominates. Its really not for all but I like it like that. The color of the beer is to my liking as well. Its a completely dark yellow color, thick with no clarity at all. I do not know if I have ever seen a wit so dark and thick. The head was initially large and bubbly but eventually disappeared completely. Got a bit more body to it then most Wits I come across.<br />On tap @ Downtown Bar & Grill, Weizen glass.
