COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This Belgian Ale is what you could call a wit with an attitude. We are generous with all our ingredients - including both orange peel and coriander. This does not stop this ale from being a good companion with seafood dishes.

Recommended serving temperature 8°C/45°F.

11P 20 IBU 4,5% ABV.

Serious wit here; lemon early before a wave of slate, gun flint and pepper roles through. Really impressive actually and if you drink plenty of dry Mosel riesling from Germany you will see a lot of simularities. And love it.

Bottle from Bierkoning. Light orange body with thin head. Citrus and orange nose. Prickly and rough texture. Citrus taste that turns into pine and bitter. Nice one.

Thanks to Akevitt for sharing. coriander, wheat, and citrus aroma. Same in the flavor, but there are some hops in here. Bright color, cloudy yellow. A medium sweet wit, with all of the classic flavors and the interesting addition of the hops. Very good.

Thanks to akevitt for sharing this. Bottle, batch 358. Pours a slightly hazy, pale yellow-gold body white head. Mainly a malty aroma with citrus and a light wheat tone. Flavor is similar with more of a lemon citrus taste and a slight pine hop near the finish. Zesty carbonation.

Skyview (4739) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - JUN 3, 2009
From 500ml bottle (Batch 358) and shared by Akevitt, pours a semi-hazy golden colored brew with a thin white head that has some nice retention and lacing. Aroma of golden grain malt, some wheat, coriander, orange zest and a touch of lemon. Taste is medium to full bodied, some carbonation with flavors of coriander, wheat malt, some white pepper, lemon zest and orange. Finish has a white pepper bite with a thin coriander and wheat aftertaste.

Scandinavian Beer Night. Thanks to Akevitt for pulling this tasting together and all the gems! Hazy gold color with a thin head. Aroma of coriander, sweet orange and light wheat. Light coriander taste, lots of wheat. Quite yeasty. A perfumy finish. Very thick.

Davros (919) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAY 22, 2009
Pours a cloudy straw approaching amber, with a inch high head that shows great persistence. Lots of herbal and earthy hops on the nose, along with the more tradition sweet orange peel, coriander, wheat and lemon. Perhaps too much hops, especially for the style. Flavour is equally hoppy, as well as lemon and wheat. Much more bitter than expected. Good lively carbonation.
