Bottled (thanks jbrus!). Hazy orange colour, small creamy white head. Aroma is parfukme, wheat, banana and herbs. Flavour is wheat, spices, some yeast as well as quite bready notes. Tasty and quite refreshing.

Bottled. Cloudy yellow, minimal head. Strong coriander aroma. Medium sweet, quite fruity with medium body. Coriander dominates completely, underneath there are note of citrus and wheat malt. Finishes sticky, which reduces the refreshing qualities.

Bottle @ Odense Tasting, September 2011. Pours cloudy golden with a small white head. Sweet nose and flavor. Banana and wheat.

Bottle, 5.7%. Distinct coriander aroma, almost candyish. Cloudy dark yellow colour. White head. The flavour has the same distinct coriander note. Partially balanced by a little lemon citrus flavour. But not quite.

Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is hazy golden. Aroma and taste are yeast, wheat malt, fruits and hops. More like a german hefe than a wit.

Bottle, shared by Papsoe. A hazy, yellow-golden beer with a small, off-white to white head. Some banana, a little papery touch, some alcohol and a little caramel in the aroma. The flavor has some citrusy hops in addition to the banana, alcohol and caramel also found in the aroma. Nice bitterness towards the finish. Medium-bodied and effervescent. A quite decent beer, but nothing special either ways. (090514)
