Sep 4, 2007 Pours a cloudy golden orange with a medium bubbly/creamy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of coriander, orange, other spices, Belgian yeast, bread, banana and floral notes. Flavors were a mix of the same Belgian yeast and spices, orange, corriander, some banana, bubblegum and a touch of caramel as well.

Sep 4, 2007 12 oz bottle. Lightly fogged orange with a bit of white head. Spicy dough, orange, hospital and banana. Light carb with a Juicy Fruit tang and medium body that feels heavy. Rich banana-orange; perhaps most flavorful wit i’ve had but alcohol rises up and doesn’t help a bitter, wheaty finish. Imperial wit sounds about right.

Sep 4, 2007 Bottle. Pours out an orange color with a nice white head on it. Plenty of sweet spicy smells along with some coriander and orange. The taste of it kind of put me off at first, but as I got used to it, it became excellent. Very easy to drink, especially for 9%. Very good stuff, and a top rank witbier - even though on here it gets classified as a belgian strong, and thus it gets lost in a sea of beers which it does not even compare to. Since this is a belgian strong, I guess I will do a blind tasting with this, chimay, rochefort 8, and pannepot. On a more realistic level, this is probably the best wit I have had, and frankly, if the brewer says it is a wit, then to me that is good enough. Cant wait for 9000. I hope its not a 8% helles, because then it would be put under double IPA.

Sep 3, 2007 bottle shared by thedm and hotstuff - Pours hazy yellow-orange with a very citrusy aroma that also has some light spice. The flavor is sweet with mild citrus and spice. It’s medium bodied and has some nice light hops in the finish. Very enjoyable.

Sep 3, 2007 Updated: Sep 10, 2007Bottle from Capones, Sampled with Stegosaurus. Cloudy orange/copper pour. Mild sweet aroma with hints of wheat and spice. Flavor was wheat and spice on the front but a hint of banana and alcohol in the back. Really good brew.

Sep 2, 2007 Pours orange with a rocky light tan head. The aroma is very thick rich wheat, the spices mention on the bottle (coriander & grains of paradise) and lemony / orange citrus zest. This has many traits of a wit, but jacked up to 11 and much sweeter. Medium / thick body with lots of semi-sharp carbonation. The flavor starts with hefty smooth wheat and a nice melding of the spices and some rich citrus as well. The finish has a pleasing alcohol burn along with some sharpness. Thumbs up to this interesting and unique beer that goes its own way. I’ll be sure to enjoy this while it is still around ~ too bad this is a limited release.
