Jun 26, 2004 Deeply hazy - not quite cloudy, though. Pale tan colour, limited white head. Aroma shows lemon, coriander, wheat and grapefruit. The flavour is very citrusy - orange, grapefruit and lemon could all easily be inferred. It is bordering on being overtly sweet, but thankfully doesn’t cross the line entirely. In fact, the citrusy notes go to another level, a little bit of yeast kicks in and this works to provide a quenching, off-dry finish. Light-bodied and refreshing - a beginner’s wit that still holds some interest due to the lack of any hoppiness and the overt, wide-ranging citrus character.

Jun 18, 2004 Cloudy bright yellow colour and a thin white head. Coriander, wheat, lemony citrus, and a slightly sour aroma. Flavour also shows bright citrus, spice, and yeastiness. A thirst-quenching easy-drinking brew.

Feb 12, 2005 Bought this fall 2004 at LCBO. Hazy white with a thick creamy lacing white head. Aroma of wheat, yeast and lemony coriander. Creamy mouthfeel, sweet and smooth. Notes of bananas and light spices, lacking in depth. OK white.

Oct 4, 2005 Bottle (330ml). Shared with blankboy at Smokeless Joe. Poured murky pale yellow-orange with a small white head. Aroma - whoah, bacon! A belgian wheat and I get BACON?!! Also citrus, ashy belgian wheat character, coriander, fruit - quite different. Taste is not of bacon, but there’s a smokiness here, also plenty of spice (coriander, black pepper), citrus (lemon), some light sweet malt, light hops, cereal grains and a floral/perfumy finish. Mouthfeel is quite spicy and lively. An oddball belgian witbier, but I really liked that smoked bacon character.

Jun 19, 2004 very corriander wheat ale, with orange to give it flavour. OK Wheat beer with creamy mouthfeel and medium texture. Some smoke and astringency. Needed 3 other mates to finish.
