Jul 2, 2008 cloudy pale gold with a long lasting egg shell white head. The aroma is strong with the lemons and a fresh floral character, like dandelions. Bright and clear, this is like smelling a lemonade while having flowers bloom on your porch. The taste is lightly tart with some dry hay notes in the finish. There is also some oaken woodiness. The really high carbonation is sharp and nearly bites the tongue. This has a lot more character than most wits, not for the timid.

Jun 17, 2008 750ml bottle. Aroma: Very funky and sour lemon, light pepper and coriander, oak. The funky lemon is really upfront and smells great. Appearance: Light golden in color and hazy. Bright white head was full and foamy with great retention. Great lacing. Flavor: Lemon and light funkiness, oak and coriander. Some very light tropical fruit notes into the finish. Nice tartness throughout. Medium dry finish. Palate: Medium-light bodied. Medium high carbonation. Overall: A very different take on the Wit. I enjoyed it a lot, but mostly for the sour and funkiness.

Jun 10, 2008 750mL Bottle. Pours a fluffy deep cloud, slightly clouded, with a tall rocky white head. Aroma is fragrant and smooth in passionfruit and palm sugar. Delicate and breezy. Flavor moves similar, adding pineapple, certain Brett and citrus to the wind. Very refreshing. The palate is very moving, but doesn’t let flavor linger long. Explosive and evaporative. Fluffy. A great bright fresh dry and slightly sour tropical flavor pairs beautifully with the heat and sunshine. Nice.

Jun 9, 2008 A nice, but a little sweet witbier. Aroma of coriander, orange and soda. Pour was a light gold with a nice 2 finger white head. Taste was a little sweet. Sugar, coriander and spices with nice carbonation and a sweet wet aftertaste. Almost tasted and looked like ginger ale.

May 29, 2008 Bottle that holds a hazy, pale yellow liquid that supports a massive, fluffy, white head with sour aromas hitting my nose before I’m even done pouring. Closer inspection confirms the lemony aromas and some sidenotes of lemon and grass. Flavor is wonderfully tart... lemon peel and spice, but comes off as very refreshing and crisp. At first I thought it seemed pretty thin and unidimensional, but I really like how it all hangs together and consider these "flaws" to be strengths after further consideration. Wish I had bought a couple more bottles since I don’t know when I’ll see this again.
