The noses meets with a sweet orange aroma and bread. A slight bitterness counteracts the sweet orange leaving the mouth with a yeasty character. Not as spicy as I would expect and a little on the yeast infection side of beer.

Hazy pale yellow with a big white head. Coriander dominates the aroma which also has some fruity, yeasty pineapple and orange. Sweetish and spicy flavour, maybe too sweet and too much coriander for mu taste. But a smooth and drinkable beer.

I tried this beer on May 20, 2008 at "Smokeless Joe’s" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a hazy yellow orange with a finger-thick white head that lasted throughout. The aroma was yeast, malt, and spicy sweetness. The mouthfeel was medium bodied and highly carbonated, almost sparkling. The flavour was wheat, yeast, and some sweet malty tones.

Draft at <a href="http://www.5thearlmarket.com/">Fifth Earl Market in Decatur. Pours a very cloudy yellow with some notes of tan. There were a few white bubbles, but no real head (it likely faded on its way from the tap to my table). The aroma has some grassiness and mustiness, some wheat character, and a light sweetness with some spice. The flavor starts wheaty with a subtle tartness and some coriander spice. At mid-palate the beer is dry and wheaty with a subtle hop bitterness. The beer finishes dry with flavors of orange peel and spice. The mouthfeel is crisp and medium in body, and it is particularly dry at the back of the palate. Overall, a great and authentic witbier.

0.33L bottle. small stable head. Murky ugly light yellow colour. Aroma dominated by wheat and banana with a trace of something smokey. The flavour is made of banana, vanila and a touch of citrus and spice. It is quite dry with just a touch of sweetness developing into a lingering sweet and sour finish.
