Pours a cloudy lemony white. Has a nice fragrant floral aroma. Very clean citrusy taste, not too much bitterness on the hops side. Overall, it seems to make a nice smooth easy drinking beer.

330ml bottle. Poured into glass with a frothy foamy white head that lasted a while. Pale yellow in colour with aroma of citrus- a great beer.

Draft and bottle Pours a hazy yellow with a quickly leaving thin white head. Aroma of citrus, coriander, and wheat. Little touches of spiciness. A crisp very refreshing taste and great mouthfeel. Good carbination. A nice beer that is on tap at golf course for after a round.

Pours a hazy straw into the glass, with a fizzy white soda head that dissipates quickly. Some wheat and sour grains to the nose. The flavors have some lemony citrus, sour grains, citrus rind, light coriander notes, hay and blanched wheat. Lively carbonation accompanies a refreshing citrus-sour finish, making for a light-bodied quaff. Nice Belgian White here, and a great offering to partake during warm weather... perfect for summer.

there is a definite citrus aroma to it with a mild touch of spicyness. it pours a cloudy honey color with a fabulous foamy and thick white head. the flavor is slightly less citrusy than the aroma and the coriander and orange peel are evident and tasty. the mouthfeel is thick and creamy (the main reason why i prefer belgian beers) and the finish lingers on with a subtle citrus hoppiness.
