A lot of spicy notes, coriander and orange of course, but certainly more complex than "normal" blanche. Dry in spite of oats and slightly bitter. A good beer.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 16, 2007 750mL bottle, drink before 2009. Very hazy and somewhere between yellow and orange. Almost looks like Airborne. Nice tart and citrusy aroma with a decent amount of spice (especially corriander). I’ll admit, it took a bit for this to grow on me. It starts rather wheaty and heavy on the citrus. Spices, honey and those oats all mix together to make a great, full mouthfeel. Very dry, tart and peppery finish. Very good wit.

A meaty wit with some balls to it and a good beer. Page 268 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 199 out of his 500 Classic Brews to go.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Feb 26, 2007 Murky haze with creamy white suds and swimming with bits. Heavily coriandered, peppery snout with a touch of honey. Silkily oaty with a potent dose of Tripel Karmeliet-style spice, and finishing with an appealing dryness atypical of the style.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 21, 2007 Bottle sampled with stegosaurus. Pours a dark yellow with a fat head. Aroma of malt, honey, wheat & spices. Flavor is citrus honey with some hops. finish was clean and smooth with no aftertaste. bask (305), Leuven, Belgium
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 20, 2007 Orange body, small creamy white head. Strong wheat, lemonish dry aroma, some orange peel. Citric flavour, strong lemonish finish. Good white, but a little bit dull. Palidor19 (1771), Brandon, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 6, 2007 The first thing that hit when I sipped this was the carbonation level. It hit me hard. Tastes of fruity gum, mild spices and a touch of coriander makes this very smooth beer to drink with friends nick76 (2655), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 6, 2007 The aroma has coriander, bananas, bubble gum, yeast, and wheat malt. The appearance is amber with a three finger white head. The flavor is like the aroma with a somewhat fruity taste. The palate is thin but OK for the style with a light pepper aftertaste. Overall it’s nice and different but not great.
