shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA Feb 17, 2004 Updated: Aug 28, 2004Rerate: Enjoyed this much more than the first time I tried it. Not as hazy as a hoegaardan or other wits I have tried. Great aroma or citrus. HUGE head. My brother got me a 3 pint bottle for my birthday. I enjoyed this a lot. YourDarkLord (1800), Urbana, Illinois, USA Jan 20, 2004 Deep amber with a white head. Aroma of fruit (orange) and spice. Seemed to indicate good flavor but it didn't. Flavor was fizzy and odd. Too much fruit? Spice? In the end, it was a disappointment. DrunkAsASkunk (847), Lynnwood, Washington, USA Jan 18, 2004 Ok...i feel like im sucking on a Vitamin C pill with the orange peel hints and high citric intake! The aroma is high in wheaty smell with some hints of...call me nuts..cheerios cereal. Very boring appearance...slightly cloudy yellowy/orange mixture with a soapy white head that disappeared as soon as i looked at it. The flavor is super citricy, with hints of banana (almost hefe-like) and wheat apparent...some orange in the finish..though overall very dry. I sense a bit of vanilla sweetness about a minute after the sip.. it makes the finish a tad bit nicer..but overall I'm just sensing an average beer here. And what is up with the soda-like carbonation here..i feel like im drinking flavored seltzer water with a bit of lemon added igneous1 (1374), Davenport, Iowa, USA Jan 8, 2004 cloudy pale golden color, no real head. sweet with some sourness in the aroma, citrusy coriander. The spice comes through a lot more in the flavor, and the flavor is more sour than the aroma lets on. finish is very citrusy with a slightly metallic aftertaste. beastiefan2k (1592), Lawrence (formely NYC), Kansas, USA Dec 20, 2003 Updated: May 5, 2006Cloudy colored but in the good way, not cloudy like a Bud. This is probably the most distinct belgian white I have ever tried, definitly worth a try by any beer lover. It has a strong citric kick. I wouldn’t drink this on a regular basis but I do recommend everyone to try it. Rerate 5/5/06 - oh boy, I compared this to a bud. Well this is definitly more sour than I mentioned. Liek citrus mixed with sourness. Medium nobody, feel that sourness for a while. I am lowering my rating just a bit. Hopistotle420 (1178), Amherst, Massachusetts, USA Dec 1, 2003 Cloudy orange-yellow...kinda like orangina. White fluffy head. Citrus, yeast, bready nose. I was told by a cute bartender that this tastes like clam juice...I think she was wrong. Coriander is heavy and chunky in this brew, there is alot of it. Citrus, lemon rind, yeast. Nice body, and finishing wih subtle, gentle hops. Suttree (2701), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Nov 29, 2003 Cloudy Golden Orange, Rocky head. Smells of orange nad black pepper. Fluffy mouthfeel. Ornage jam flavor. Some cinnamon, some wheat flavor. harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA Nov 12, 2003 Okay, I did not like this at all. Reminded me of more of a sour ale, in the aroma and taste. Very sour and spicy. Aroma is musty and acidic. Taste is unbalanced and much like drinking a bottle of sweat.
