Pale hazy yellow with a nice white head. Fairly light, but packed with flavor. Citrus, spices, and yeast all well balanced between citrus sour and sweet. Crisp and mid range carbonation make it refreshing. Wheaty finish with a hint of citrus, very pleasant.

Bottle pours a hazy, pale yellow with a thick and foamy white head. Aroma is mostly wheat and orange peel. Nice light and refreshing wheat flavor that also includes citrus and coriander.

Bottle. Pours yellow/white, with a thinnish, crisp, white head, specks of lace. Smells big and yeasty, slightly cirtusy. Tastes bready, yeasty and citrusy on the finish. I’m sre there are malt sin there too but I’m not that good. Great beer, I think I had this in Brussels once with a slice of lemon. Thin body, vibrant carbonation.

Great, refreshing beer for drinking after working hard on a hot, humid day. Beautiful balance, light, but still interesting enough.

pours very cloudy almost white color, it is really a very very pale yellow. Smells extremely yeasty with a citrus hint, the flavor really has more to say than the aroma in my opinion, i picked up more spices, yeast and citrus. This is very well rounded, good stuff!

Bottle: Clearish yellow in color, good head. Smell is lemon. Flavor is refreshing lemon, orange & coriander. Medium carbonation but crisp which makes it a good summer brew. I would get it again...

Draught at The Bishop’s Arms, Järntorget, Göteborg, Sweden. Hazy yellow with a large, stable, white head. Hoppy aroma with dominance of citric notes. Slightly sweet and sour taste. Refreshing mouthfeel with light carbonation.

Pale hazy straw, like lemonade with whipped egg whites on top. The coriander hits hard in the aroma over tangy citrus. Flavor matches the aroma with bits of yeast and sweet malt while being light and quaffable. Zippy carbonation, but somewhat thin bodied. Finish is nicely spicy.
