Commercial Description:
Craft brewed in the true Belgian witbier style using 50/50 wheat and barley malts. Late kettle additions of dried curacao and coriander, and fresh yeast added prior to bottling, produces this naturally cloudy ale of distinction. Bottle conditioned.

Cloudy yellow colour with thick white head, nutty floral aroma. Sprucey, peppermint flavour. Thin body. but still very pleasant.

Notes of orange and floral herbs. Pours a near ochre yellow. Despite appearances there is little carbonation and not terribly refreshing. Touches of spice linger after a mouthful. Principal flavours of under-ripe fruits with a little sherbet. Overall a moderately above average Australian bier, not quite achieving the style of Belgian witbier.

...bottle. Impressive, I tend to doubt the aussie brewers in the wheat\wit styles, but this one was great. Nice creamy head that lasts, smooth palate. Yeast and wheat on the nose, followed by the nice citrus notes, and hints of corriander. Creamy finish that is dry and fruity. Good job, and worth a try.

330ml bottle, BB 31 Dec 08, served chilled. Pours a cloudy butter-coloured body with creamy white head. Sherberty nose, grainy wheat, sharp citrus and earthy coriander, ripe pears and banana. Carbonation is which low, creamy texture, only a slight tartness. Big coriander element on the body, overpowers pretty much everything else once it gets goes, quite earthy, some underlying ripe fruit, citrus and sweetening maltiness. Finish is abrupt, dry, gritty. Not bad, good on ’em for trying this style.
