12oz bottle. Pours cloudy, straw yellow with a very small, white head. Smells light and crisp cereal malty with a hint of spice. Tastes crisp and and sweet malty with light citrus and light spice. Very nice brew, tasty and refreshing. Medium body, good carbonation.

The aroma is smashing, with definite notes of spice, ranging from coriander, clove, and some nutmeg, and the yeast notes are intoxicating. It’s appearance is the standard cloudy, unfiltered appearance, with a glowing yellow-white color, and nice full head. It’s flavor is complex for a white initial a bit citric, but cools immediatley with a full yeasty, but nicely malted mouth, and followed by a dose of spice. It’s a Hoegaarden w/ more character, if that’s easily believed. It’s exceptional. It’s very smooth, and complex when that’s not something associated with this style. Awesome.

UPDATED: JUN 30, 2008 Bottle. pours a murky gold with a fluffy white head that doesn’t go away. Aroma is spicy yeast, bit of citrus. Taste is wheat, crisp citrus and coriander, spicy yeast - classic for the style, but fairly big. Finish is dry and yeasty, with a lingering spicy tartness. Mouthfeel is light but creamy at the same time, never watery. Delicious.

This was slightly under a bit in spices, but extremely refreshing, drinkable, and delicious. One of my favorite whites.

floral, citrusy flavors dominate this outstanding white beer. Serve with a lemon for maximum effect.

A very solid drinkable beer. Color is a pale watery gold. Nose and taste are of spice, citric hops, slightly lemon grass. Great carbonation. I highly recommend this beer if your looking for a light well balanced easy drinker.

Pours a pale cloudy yellow. I swirled the bottle to get the most yeast out of the bottle. The aroma is a piney, spicy wheat. The beer has a spiciness and fruitiness to the flavor. So it’s more sweet but it’s dry on the finish.
