Cloudy light yellow with a medium white topper. Aroma of coriander, orange peel, fruity yeast and dough. Taste of coriander, grains and mild orange. A bit thin, but otherwise okay.

Nov 19, 2009 Bottle from the Orland Park, IL, Binny’s Beverage Depot: It poured a hazy straw body with a short-lived fizzy head. The aroma was some sweet bready malt, a twist of lemon, and some light spices. Very spritzy mouthfeel. The flavor was white bread with sugar on it, coriander, and lemon. Okay, but there’s much better out there for less.

Nov 4, 2009 Bottle: Hazy golden with a dense white head- good retention. Damp wheaty aroma with an apple-lke hint and honeyish maltose background. Mild spice presence is there as well with a note of coriander- a touch of bubblegum phenols as well. Crisp mouthfeel with a fairly dry wheaty flavor. Drier than the aroma suggests. The phenolics give it a nice dry/white pepper like note accompanied by a light coriander note. The back displays some lavender as well. A solid take on the style.

Oct 31, 2009 Light cloudy yellow color with some micro bubbles. Tastes like gumballs with lemon zest. Some white spice in the nose. Quite fizzy throughout. Short finish. Rather dry.

Oct 26, 2009 Pours hazy gold into a tumbler. Bright white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Sour orange and clove aromas. Sweet orange upfront with a dry, lasting wheat finish.

Sep 12, 2009 Cloudy yellow pour with white head. Clove, coriander, some fruit. Semi-sweet, clove, coriander, balanced. It is an OK beer. Aftertaste is OK. Some lacing.

Aug 23, 2009 My Bottom Line:
This perfumy Witbier focuses on its orange peel and coriander seeds, spicy flavors emboldened by fluffy and expansive carbonation.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam covers the hazy golden.
-Subtle diacetyl is found in the aroma.
-Floral notes abound, alongside simple pale cereals.
-A light herbaceous hop character peers through the back end.
-While this is very drinkable, it may be a tad too sweet for my liking (in the style).
