3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
500ml bottle @ Brew on Quay, Auckland. Presents cloudy pale yellow with a decent white head. Aroma and taste of wheat malts, lemon citrus, coriander and a hint of cinnamon. Lively mouthfeel with a medium body. A decent Wit.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Ginger and coriander on the nose, with a cloudy complexion. Refreshing style that does have the "citrus zest", but I prefer my wheat beers to more banana than citrus.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
odd flavor, kinda seemed off but I think it was just the hops and Malts they use. Still I wouldn’t come back to this beer
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Sampled at the DC Ratebeer Gathering. Pours a hazy yellow with some thin, white head. Nose is BIG, tons of spice, ginger, coriander, lavender, chamomile. Flavor is pretty much the same, a big bag of potpourri, chamomile. Tastes like an Asian massage without the happy ending. Full bodied, herbal finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
last pour, cloudy, white top with a small bubbled ring. Nose is strong sage, light grass and lemon, dusty wheat. Flavor is more wheat, coriander, sage, lasting spice, wood, and husky grain through the finish. Nice, balanced, flavor more Integrated than nose.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Thanks noodleuser! Hazy lemonade pour with a small white head. Sage, rosemary, lavendar, and other herbal incarnations make their way into the aroma. The flavor is much the same. Nutmeg, chamomile, doughy caramel malt, and herbal spiciness, sporting a light to medium body and highly fluffy effervescence.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sweet honey and floral nose with coriander and citrus, some dusty yeast. Taste is lightly sweet, lightly tart, some hay and apple, light spice and dough.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle thanks to noodleuser: pours a slightly hazy golden with a spotty froth of white head. Has a unique floral citrus and coriander nose with a touch of light wheat. Starts with a thin effervescent body and light pale malty sweetness with a clean citrusy lemon bitterness toward the finish. A unique take on the style.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle shared by Noodleuser. Pours hazy pale yellow with a medium, fizzy white head, medium retention with good lacing. Aroma is coriander, lavender, flowers, light wheat malt, black pepper, and citrus notes. Flavor is citrus, light malt, heavy spices, and a dry finish. Light body, low warmth, and medium carbonation.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
500mL thanks to noodleuser. Cloudy straw with a massive, pillowy white head. Awesome retention and lace. Looking good. Smell is perfumey to the max: flowers, chamomile, lavender, big herbal spices. Very intense herbal explosion. Sage, rosemary. Reminds me of Southampton Cuvee de Fleurs and oddball cask versions of Stillwater Stateside Saison and Cellar Door. Wow- great herbal nose. Taste is fresh, effervescent, light fruitiness. Dry, crisp, lemon and refreshing. Excellent all around.
