Jun 13, 2009 Bottle, much thanks to Soonah. Pours cloudy gold with attractive white head. The aroma is mandarin orange, a little bit of coriander, some overt yeastiness, and some peppery spice. The flavor is sweet like a very mild honey with an almost floral tinge to it. There’s a yeasty breadiness in there with a little bit of orange (though not as much as comes across in the nose). Finish is light and doesn’t stay for long. Refreshing, but not amazing.

Apr 30, 2009 Clear dark golden with a small white head. Tart wheat aroma with dry spice and burnt rubber. Light carbonation with a smooth mouthfeel. Nice citrusy orange flavors with dry spice and tart wheat. No off flavors, not that bad.

Apr 13, 2009 Bottle courtesy of Soonah – thanks John! Pours cloudy yellow with a one finger fizzy white head. The nose is sweet wheat and lemon zest. The taste is spicy yeast, fresh wheat and citrus in the finish. Medium creamy mouthfeel. Decent wit – very refreshing.

Mar 19, 2009 Appearance: Pours a lightly hazy, pale yellow body with a thin, wispy, white head.
Smell: Meager aroma smelling lightly of wheat and lemon with a faint perceived note of spice.
Taste: Delicate, soft wheat flavor with only a marginal touch of sweetness. Squirt of acidic lemon juice. A few unconventional drops of coconut milk. Skimpy spice addition. Faint hop bitterness. Lightly tart on the crisp finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-high carbonation.
Drinkability: It’s more of a Wavering Wheat if you ask me. In terms of the noble witbier style, Waving Wheat underperforms in terms of aroma and overall flavor. However, if you ever find yourself waking up one morning hungry for a comparatively light, chuggable wit, then, I guess this is the beer for you.

Feb 21, 2009 Good brew, as witbiers go. Aroma is spicy, with hints of clove and coriander, as well as orange peal, wheat and yeast. Flavor is initially malty and yeasty, balanced by hints of clove, banana, and orange. Overall, quite a complex beer. Every bottle offers another spice or flavor.
