Mar 2, 2009 Sweet citrus and orange peel aromas with some light peppery and musty notes. Color is pale yellow, semi-opaque with a rich and foamy head. Flavors are lightly spicy, some citrus and honey notes, sweetish duration. Light bitterness in the background. Not overly thick. Pretty good all round wit. Very nice.

Feb 28, 2009 Tap at OTH.
Pours hazy golden with frothy white head.
Aroma was quite yeasty with notes of fresh citrus hops. Nose had plenty of sweetness, almost like honey.
Taste, yeasty, thick palate with notes of citrus and spices such as coriander.
Easy to drink, and actually felt very enjoyable on the palate. Didn’t have too much spices and bitter hops.

Feb 21, 2009 Pours a dirty golden brown with a nice fluffy white head. Aroma is citrus fruit and yeast. Flavor is oranges, yeast, light coriander. Feel is nice and creamy. Definitely more substantial than most wits. This is a nice beer but I wish it had more flavor.

Feb 20, 2009 Hazy yellow with thin foam head. Fresh citrus aroma. Flavour is quite yeasty at first. Some spice then comes through but it’s not long before the dominance of the yeast returns.

Feb 16, 2009 Appearance: very solid, textbook; very big fluffy white head retention; yellow straw color; very cloudy, like thick fog;
Aroma: somewhat bland and unexciting; slight honey vanilla; not much of a spice presence; a little bit of fruity and floral, but not much
Flavor: has a honey, vanilla backbone with mild lactic acid; not much spice and not much fruit
Mouthfeel: similar impression as above; unexciting; mediocre; nothing special at all; far from it
I’m wondering if this is either too old or a bad batch.
