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 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.

Sep 2, 2008 Pours cloudy gold. Orange runs around your mouth and pulls some coriander along for the ride. I sat in a corner of a dark pub in NYC, sipping these with my coworker. It was a very hot day, and an emotional one that we were glad to get behind us. Tipping back a few of these helped ease my mind a bit. The balance of flavors was very calming on a sticky day.

Aug 31, 2008 Aromas of lemon zest, coriander.
Full wit flavor, fruity (peach + pear), very spicy (anise, coriander) and citrusy.
Palate is crisp and clean. Finishs dry.

Aug 26, 2008 Bottle thanks to jjpm74. Pours a cloudy gold color with a small white head. The aroma is mostly spices, citrus and yeast. The flavor is full and fairly tart; a smooth and creamy palate, some orange and lemon peel, coriander and oranges stand out. A bit of sourness along with the spices. A nice brew.

Aug 25, 2008 33cl bottle from GM Liquors; Nose of yeast, light corriander, and floral hops; murky yellow-orange with a small yellowish head; flavor of light hop bitterness, corriander, nutmeg, and wheat. Decent but not great!

Aug 23, 2008 A pretty cool import. Pours a hazy yellow with a bubblely head that fades in a couple of seconds. The smell was the best part of this beer. I found it very floral almost like tulips but probably just some interesting hops. Taste was light but did pick up both that nutmeg and coriander, did not notice any of the orange mentioned in the commercial description. With the second pour from the bottle the beer became very hazy and almost milky thick. That floral smell intesified tot he point where i could rebottle it as perfume.
