4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
One of the best beers ive ever had, i wih i gave this one the proper respect becasue in fairness to my rating, i was not sober at the time. But as drunk as i was, remembering this one was a light in the fog, absolutely delicious, great orange peel zest and coriander balance in the taste and just enough of a bight in the aftertaste that made this really enjoyable. another great one from mikkeller.

A really good beer. Yellow and light golden in color. Coriander very strong in it. Lots of citrus flavors. A really good beer. I like the mix between the hoppyness and the witbier notes.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange color. The head is frothy white.
Hoppy aroma, sweet and citrusy. It is a little bready.
Very hoppy flavour and citrus fruits. The breadiness is there but not too forward.
Smooth mouthfeel and a dry aftertaste.
Amazing beer which I will for sure pick up again.

UPDATED: APR 17, 2009 Appearance: Impressive, slightly darker hue than typical for the style; other than that, it is a prototype for the style
Aroma: very typical of the style; tremendous complexity, yet seems to be in very harmonious balance; has a little bit of everything; honey, vanilla, orange, spice, and more!
Flavor: loses points here mainly because the hops are too strong for this style; now, I am a hophead so I don’t mind this; in fact, I love this beer, but in terms of conforming to the witbier style characteristics, it does not; therefore my overall impression is high and the other categories will lose some points
Mouthfeel: very good except probably a fuller body than is typical for the style, but again, that is most likely from the stronger hop presence

750 from Capone’s. Pours hazy canary with huge fluffy white head. Nose is spicy florals, limey citrus, coriander, orange zest, saazy hops. Great nose on this. Tastes spicy, with the coriander and orange zest up front, Saaz hops, yeasty spicy florals, and a crisp, smooth, complex palate. This is a world class wit.

Pale yellow body under a bright white, sticky head with strong lacing.
Aroma is faint, but enticing, banana, cloves, wheat, pepper.
Flavor is cinnamon, banana, arugula, and peppercorns.
Texture is dry, crisp, active, and lightly biting.
Overall, a great hoppy take on the style, and a delicious example of a witbier.

Another damn fine impressive beer from Mikkeller. It has aromas of honey and spice. Sits very well on the tongue and is remarkably smooth. Flavor is of honey, spice, and hops. Very enjoyable.

Way more spices than any regular Belgian wit and not that wheaty. Really pretty good stuff. Thanks Anthony!
