COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our White Beer is produced in the true Belgian style with 50 percent barley and 50 percent wheat and an imported Belgium yeast strain. The beer is left unfiltered and deliberately cloudy so as to allow the yeast characteristics to dominate. Coriander and orange peel are added during the boil to contribute a spicy citrus flavor. Silver Medal 2003 Australian International Beer Awards.

Note: The bottled version is brewed and bottled by AIB.

From the bottle. Nice, spicy aroma, hints of coriander and yeast. Medium mouth feel. Finishes with definite sourness. Quite pleasant.

Hazy golden pour with a white head. Wheat malt aroma. Good clean wheat taste, crisp and mild.

Tap at Feral Brewery. Pours golden straw colour with a white head. Aroma is pungent banana, orange and smoky meat. Taste is smoky meat, doughy yeast and banana. Not really a fan of this beer, but they gave it a go.

Bottle and from the 10000litre tank at Australian independent Brewers. A good version of a Witbier.

In a tulip glass on tap at the Local Taphouse 20/3/13. Pours cloudy grey or pale straw colour, with a large white head that quickly sinks. Definite spiced yeasty aroma and a citrus quality - orange and lemon zest. The taste revels the inclusion of coriander in the brewing process, banana, and a bready undertone. It definitely ticks some boxes with regards to the Belgian wit style but the body is on the thin side with a slightly tart finish. Not my favourite style to begin with, it’s a little one dimensional.

Bif (1052) - St. Louis, Missouri, USA - FEB 23, 2013
Pours a hazy copper color with a fair head that fades to bits of lacing. Aroma of citrus, banana and spice, with a bit of malt sweetness. Taste of banana, malt sweetness, some spice and bit of grain. Mild bitterness and a fairly clean finish. Fairly moderate body, smooth with a decent balance. Nice beer for the style.

Cloudy yellow poor with no significant head. Pleasant enough spice and touch of coriander but not really my kind of beer.

Having read other reviews, I’d have to conclude that something went wrong. Smelled like sausage, tasted like sausage. Might have to try again and re-rate, but in the interim this is what it is, as the young people say.

Tap the Rose and Crown. Pours a clear yellow with little to no head. Aromas of banana, bread and some orange. Taste has more bready yeasty tones coming through. Quite refreshing for a summer day. Not into wheat beers but this is ok.
