May 9, 2009 On tap in the summer of 2008: Pours a hazy deep golden with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of fresh ground coriander and a sweet biscuity pale maltiness. Body starts with good fullness and carbonation with a light orange citrus flavor and good coriander spice. Smooth, full flavored yet pretty drinkable.

May 2, 2009 Bottle. A cloudy straw-colored pour with a HUGE off-white head that leaves rings of lacing. Loads of coriander, zesty orange peels, lemons, and some bananas in the wheaty, yeasty, INTENSE aroma. Big body for the style. A little creamy here and there. Starts off very sweetly with some caramel, creamy honey flavors, and slight vanilla. Zesty oranges, bananas, and a tangy wheatiness follow. Finishes kinda dry with lemons. A spicy yeastiness throughout. Underrated as hell!

May 1, 2009 Pours a hazy golden with very nice head retention... Aroma is yeasty wheaty with coriander, no hops, no sweetness, very stock wit aroma with citrusy lemon/orange notes... Flavor is slightly lemony very average wit... i remember this being more belgian blonde ale like in the past, if changes have been made it is much more traditional than i remember... Decent mouthfeel, decent body....

Apr 25, 2009 Possibly an off batch. Bottle had a ring of thick crusty stuff at the bottom (not your average cloudy sediment). Poured a clear gold with a fluffy white head that stuck around. Aroma was pleasant after a bit; almost rosy or with some kind of sweet pleasant aroma of that sort. Flavor was overly pilsner-like (a minus in my book). The usual wit spices didn’t come out very well.

Mar 2, 2009 Updated: Jun 9, 2009Just bought a case of this and am happy with my purchase... great wit, spicy cloves and citrus with beautiful balance, maybe a hint of honey... hides the alcohol well

Feb 24, 2009 Bottle. Effusive coriander nose with strong overtones of sparkling Champagne, some lemon cleaner, Hazy golden pour with a luscious soapy off-white head. Taste is very dry and yeasty (the main character) with some booze showing - very reminiscent of a Tripel. Otherwise, typical wittish notes are pushed to the side somewhat. Full body with some kick from spice and orange rind/peel. Dripping honey, vanilla, and consistent light carbonation. Some earthy pumpkin in the mid-body and a firm bit of lime zest in the finish. Dry, long, meringe-ish aftertaste. Effervescent and refreshing! Rather enjoyed.
