Commercial Description:

Pours a hazy golden orange with a thin white head.... Aroma is fairly wheaty without the usual spiciness but with a twang of orange aroma... Flavor follows the aroma, without the spiciness that defines many of the quality witbiers that i like... Medium bodied easy drinking, this is a quality beer for the masses...

Awesome beer. Light orange poor and body. You can smell the citrus before you drink this sacrament. Very good taste of orange, light drink, just all around good beer. No complaints about this beer on my end.

Light orange hazy body with a good sized white head that fully dissapears. Aroma of citrus and malts. Light bodied beer. Classic belgian flavors with an orange twist at the end. Refeshing beer Could get a little sweet if you had more than one though.

Citrusy with a watery mid-palate. Head disappears quickly into the hazy, orange-yellow brew. A beer for summer sessions.

Draught: Pours a darker gold with a medim white head. Holds a small lacing when the glass empties. Smells of wheat and malts. Leaves the palate refreshed and ready more. Good summer brew!

Bottle (12oz). Yep, says "brewed in Toronto" on it - I had to go to Buffalo to buy it. Cloudy pale orange-amber with an average fizzy white head. Smells decent enough - apple, light coriander, mild sweet yeast. The taste is sweet, slightly papery, I get a little peach and dry floral spiciness. Solid bodied, nicely carbonated, thickly malty with no ugly aftertaste - frankly, this is a very pleasant surprise - perhaps a little too sugary and lacking in balancing coriander bitterness

Bottle. (Review of past tastings from memory) I do not like this beer. Maybe it is the style or maybe it is me but I even after a couple trys I just haven’t been able to enjoy this one.

Yellowish-gold hazy appearance with a thin white head. spice flavors nearly overwhelmed by orange. Some coriander noticable, but not fully developed. Unremarkable mothfeel, but easy to drink and sessionable.
