| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 29, 2006 Updated: Aug 4, 2006Ok, this is a re-rate after a previous bad bottle. The beer still pours ugly for me. A small white head atop a solid hazed body the color of a Trader Joes pineapple/orange juice mix - dark yellowy with orange tints.
The aromas are more pleasant than before. Definite oranges and clove spice. The yeast contributes to an aroma that I can’t detach from the fruitiness of ripe brie. Oh god, now I just smell cheese all the time! This must be what turned bad in the previous bottle.
Body is light and clean with some nice tart acidity imparted by the wheat. Refreshing and quaffable. No long aftertaste. Not nearly as bad as the first time around, but not my favorite in this style. Beerdedone (1885), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA

Pours a glowing golden peach color with a rocky eggshell white head. Pretty solid witbier aromas; coriander, seville orange rind, wheat husk and some other muted spicings. Trace mineral aroma. Very nice. Malty and crisp with a faint acidity intertwined with the malt. Fruity esters are moderate, mostly sweet citrus. Very true to its style and easily enjoyable.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 18, 2006 Updated: Jun 30, 2006I have been looking forward to trying this one. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a cloudy bright golden color with a small white head. The aroma is strong with wheat, coriander and orange. The flavor is dry and wheaty with a spicy pepper note and fairly strong citrus. The finish is yeasty and musty. A nice example of the style. MrManning (1655), London, Ontario, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 14, 2006 Bottle- Pale cloudy yellow with a fizzy, even accross the glass, blecahed white head. Aromas of tart oranges, lemon peel, spices and wheaty grain. Tart citric flavours dominate. Subtle swwetness and floral spices are present, but it’s mostly tart from start to finish. Tart banana finish, with mild sweetness lingering. Good. sersdf (1000), chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 11, 2006 this was really weird but i liked it. definitely not a witbier, seemed a lot more like a wheat or possibly hefeweizen. candyish flavor, but quite banana/orangish as well, and pretty sour. i’d never be able to drink more than one, but novel.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 11, 2006 My brother has a bottle of this that was served at like 65 degrees...which was way to warm. It poured out with almost no head or bubbles...like some new glarus. The color was gold and not cloudy white like most wits are. The biggest flavor that I noticed which totally dominated was candy sugar. I was totally confused with this beer. Didn’t seem like a Wit at a all. Perhaps because it was served so warm. Plus, it’s pretty pussy in alcohol content too.
