Sep 8, 2008 In the 750 mL bottle from Beertopia. I fine beer for $6.99, let me tell you. Explosively carbonated with a dense cake of yeast in the bottom that just would not go into suspension no matter how hard I swirled. Mild spiciness, a tinge of black pepper on the tongue. I had hoped for more orange, but mostly got a tart citrus. This is chunky with ginormous flocculent yeast colonies abounding throughout the pour. Even though I only managed about two-thirds of all the yeast into the glasses, It was still way too much yeastiness and bread dough to get down.

Aug 31, 2008 Hazy orange colour, white head. Aroma has a lot of artificial esters, wheat and bread. Very unpleasant. Flavour has wheat and fruits. Bitter finish. The aroma ruins everything.

Aug 29, 2008 Pours dull orange with fizzy white head. Aromas are dominated by wheat and spice. Palate shows more complexity some honey and chewy caramel are present albeit subtle, while wheat brings with it a touch of sourness that complements the hinting citrus. Yeasty spice drives home the finish. Carbonation is quite lively, giving the impression of a dry finish. I can appreciate that this example is really well balanced etc but honestly I’m not that big a fan of the style.

Aug 24, 2008 Pours gold into a tumbler. Fizzy soda pop head quickly recedes to nothing. Wheat and coriander aromas. Crisp with cereal and malt upfront and a lasting citrus finish.

Aug 13, 2008 Pours a rather cloudy, opaque "muddy" orange. Lots of yeast particules present.. Medium head that dissaperas in a few minutes. Yeast is very prominent in the aroma as well as bread. You can definetly taste the cereals in this beer. Slightly citric, tarty taste. Very different kinof wheat beer. Excellent. A+ in it’s category

Aug 10, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle from Kris Wine
Hazy golden brown with a thin white head that quickly settled to nothing in a violent fizz. Lovely estery aroma with some nice fruity hops and a lick of vanilla. Similar flavour that somehow retains an Abbaye des Rocs character. Superb spicy bitterness in the finish. More blonde than wit I think but still jolly good.

Aug 7, 2008 Updated: Sep 7, 2008...bottle from Cloudwine. Poured a darkish orange, with lots of tight bubbles, and a small white head that lasted for a good while. On the nose, majorly wheat, maybe a slight hint of hops, but nothing else. Medium bodied, decent flavor, slightly weird from the pepper notes, but not the typical orange\corriander duo. Didn’t taste much like a wit, had more blonde-like flavors. Dry finish, with a weird aftertaste, but wasn’t too bad. Not bad, but rather expensive and not really worth it for the flavor.

Jul 27, 2008 Pours hazy orange yellow with tons of bubbly offwhite head. Aroma very light dough and lemon. Flavor extremely doughy with slight citric undertone. Too yeasty for my liking.
