Light yellow pour with a while head. Aroma is spicy: wheat and coriander, orange peel. FLavor is kind of spicy with cardboard, styrofoam note. Not that great, but could be worse.

Bottle, 6 fl.oz. Pours a yellow beer with chillhaze and a white head. The aroma is coriander, spicy and sweet. The aroma is likewise spicy, a little too much. Overall an average wit.

I remember this brew being a bit too overpowering in the spice area but now I have gotten used to it. The cardamom is the strongest spice by far but once you can appreciate it, you’ll like it. Good drinking beer.

Cloudy yellow with a medium white frothy head that fades away moderately. Aroma of yeast, orange peel, coriander,. Taste of yeast, coriander, orange peel and mild spice. Pretty easy drinking with a spicy finish that doesn’t linger too long.

Bottle from Beer Geek. Hazy golden color with an emphemeral white head. Aroma is a bit menthol. Near medium body with spritzy carbonation. Flavor is a bit mentholic, quickly reducing to more regular spice. Whatever they used, it is really flavorful. Finish is a bit vegy, but that’s not so bad. Quite an interesting experience.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of Skyview. Pours a hazy peach color with a thin head. Almost no retention and poor lacing. Aroma is caramel, yeast and overwhelming spice. Taste is harsh spices with hints of bread. Medium bodied. Not a very pleasant experience.

Rich golden body; fruity aroma; taste has hints of coriander, spruce, and citrus. Hides alcohol well. Bottom line: a good drinking beer, though not the best.
