In the bottle from Beertopia. Pours cloudy pale yellow with a long lasting bright white head. Intense aroma of pears and pineapple. Fantastic coriander-like flavors. Peppery on the sides of the tongue. Remarkable smooth with a mild lemon finish. A really delicious beer.

Jul 7, 2008 Pours the color of a mimosa with a big white head. Nose is orange, grass and a bit of ginger. Taste is orange, balance with the spice. Very good taste for the style. The spices come out a bit in the finish. Mouthfeel is crisp, and nice. Very Good wit, and a nice surprise.

Jul 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a pale orange (almost the color of watered-down orange juice) with a big white head. Nose is orange, with a bit of wheat and a hint spicy yeast. Taste is clean wheat coupled with a pronounced note of orangey citrus, and a spicey coriander/clove bitterness in the back of the mouth that persists through the finish. Mouthfeel is crisply carbonated, but with an almost creamy body reminiscent of (again) fresh squeezed orange juice. One of a kind beer -- I can’t imagine a more perfect brunch beer.

Jun 16, 2008 11.2 fl oz bottle purchased at Lukas, KCMO. H.7.7 is stamped on the back of the bottle, not sure if that means anything. Pour is hazy yellow golden with a ton of carbonation bubbles and a big, fluffy white head. Aroma of orange peel citrus, orange slices, grain (wheat), and a lemon-lime floral sweetness. Quite a bit going on in the nose. Flavor is tart lemon and orange citrus immediately, followed by wheat and some sour sweetness. The palate is medium, and mouth coating for a Wit. The carbonation that was evident in the pour is not really that pronounced in the taste. The finish is more lime than lemon, but still sweet citrus. Nice refreshing beer.
