On tap at Brother Tuckers. Pours a cloudy orangish color with small whtie head. Aroma is very sweet with a lot of caramel, orange peel, and some yeast. Flavor has a strong alcohol component, but not in a bad way so much. I get caramel, fruit, syrup and some slight wine notes...but not a whole lot. Yeast and spices are present as well. good beer. but I couldnt drink a lot of this one.

A - pours light bubbly golden amber with no head.no lacing. S - very floral, Belgian yeasts, coriander orange peel and a hint of grapes. M - full bodied, average palate. High burning carb. Spicy palate with lingering malty Belgian yeasts. T - corriander, Belgians yeasts, orange peel up front. Pinot, over ripe grapes, over sweet fruity sugar. Lingering clovey bitter sweet malts. O - not a great combination. Far to sweet. 6-

Bottle - Orangepeel, coriander and a slight alcohol finish on the end. Golden with a long lasting creamy white head. Taste the yeast and alchohol which overwhelmes the beer, may mellow with age but now a little rich for my palate.

A - Pours a clear golden-orange with a finger of frothy white head. The head fades down slowly leaving behind some nice thick lace. S - Aroma is a mix of dark grape, orange and other citrus flavors, Belgian yeast, coriander and other spices, wheat, and a bit of oak and booze. T - Starts off with a mix of lightly sweet dark grape with some orange peel and a bit of wheat. Through the middle, some stronger citrus flavors come through with some coriander and Belgian yeast flavor. The finish is a mix of dark grape, orange and other citrus flavors, wheat, oak, and a bit of booze. M - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a sweet and warming finish. D - Very drinkable. Nice big witbier with the Pinot Noir grapes and oak adding some nice touch and balancing out the body and the alcohol content.

Clear reddish-amber with a somewhat stable, frothy cream colored head. Lacing is pretty heavy. Aroma of white wine, grapes, banana, caramel, bubblegum, citrus, and bread. Taste is witbier, wine, sweet fruit, and caramel with virtually no noticeable alcohol. Medium bodied, smooth. Nice.

Summary: Tasty.

750 mL bottle from a hotel glass. Pours a golden orange color with a small white head. Aroma has a nice bit of orange citrus and some definite grape juice. Taste has some nice fruity notes...both grape and citrus. Also there is a bit of oaky woodiness in the finish. Very refreshing, balanced beer and the ABV is very well hidden.

Draft. Very odd, Medium body, kinda sweet, has a bit of a bite though. Fruity, effervescent, hmmmm...Not so sure bout this. One of these beers is enough, couldn’t do two.

Pours golden with low white head Aromas of oranges, citrusy fruits, belgian yeast, honey Mmm. Very nice full bodied, round sweet belgian from dogfish head. Cant really sense the coriander, but it doesnt really matter... This is a really good belgian style ale!

pours a dark orange. With some foamy head. Lots of coriander and orange aroma. Sweet fruity wheat flavor. Very little oak or barrel flavor which is a little dissapointing. Still a good beer

Draught at bar. Amber color, white head. Sweet malty taste with fruits, alcohol and hops in finish. Great witbier.
