stison42 (318), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA Sep 3, 2007 Orange. No aroma. Taste of corriader and orange. Medium body. Too carbonated. Twists up my face. Soury. AdamSkillin (376), High Bridge, New Jersey, USA Sep 2, 2007 Opaque with haze, mostly untainted by the orange peel and coriander, and enough meat of maltiness to balance the very subtle sourness. I am not a lover of the style, but I would drink about a dozen and a half of these if I could do so without losing consciousness. bbbrew (171), Washington DC, USA Sep 1, 2007 bottle. hazy golden pour with white head. smel tart with lemon and spice taste. nice lingering swallow. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 02/21/2004

Heathen (723), Riverside, New Jersey, USA Aug 30, 2007 THOUGHTS: The best wit I’ve ever tired. This made all the others seem unecessary. There was way more and better flavor than most, the palate is smoother than most and it even looks nicer and smells less harsh. Almost seem like it could be a new style all it’s own.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a cloudy, medium to dark yellow, depending on the width of the glass, with tons and tons and tons of carbonation and a small to average-sized , white head that fully lasted. The lacing was good, but not in a traditional sense. It was almost like Brussles wool or cotton. It was spotty but thick in spots. The aroma was moderately yeasty with wheat, spices and some banana. The flavor was mostly moderately sweet with some acid and sourness and the finish had an average duration. The flavor was lemon and wheat with a little yeast and a touch of banana too. The light to medium body was somewhat dry and lightly fizzy with a slightly chalky and astringent finish. DrHomolka (726), Columbus, Ohio, USA Aug 30, 2007 Bomber. Pours foggy yellow with a medium/small sized head and significant yeast floaties. Retention in the head is quite low. Aroma is pretty strong. Vanilla pudding, wheat, tart, clove, orange, citrus, pretty appetizing overall. Taste is tart, tingly, light bodied, slightly bready with a sweet finish. Alcohol hidden very well. This is a successful brew and probably one of my favorites in the style. badlizard (2325), Berkeley, California, USA Aug 29, 2007 350 ml bottle mailorder from Vintage cellars. Cloudy yellow with a fizzy white head. Good orange and clove aroma. Strong banana and orange taste with a nice spiciness to the finish. emacgee (1859), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Aug 29, 2007 Poured a pale cloudy yellow with a generous white frothy head. The aroma was sweet, citrusy, definite orange, coriander, mild balanced funk, slight alcohol. Very appealing and balanced. The flavor shows alcohol, sweet oranges, spicy coriander, mild funk. Well balanced flavor as well. Shows very little carbonation on the palate, very smooth and silky not lively at all.
