Draft @ the brewpub. Pours a hazy golden color with a small white head. Has a wheat malty spicy aroma with hints of citrus and coriander. Sweetish wheat malty spicy and slighlty peppery flavor with some hints of citrus. Has a sweetish wheat malty peppery spicy finish.

Draught at the brewpub. Same color as the Jupiter hefe; yellowish brown. Cloudy and opaque. Not much light penetrates this one. Unfortunately the aroma and flavor reminded me more of an American wheat than a wit. There was only a hint of coriander, and I didn’t appreciate any orange.

Cloudy with not much larger particulates, some orange peel and maybe coriander in the nose. No yeast complex components of Brettanomyces detected. Sweet body with some candy feel. Very bright. High effervescence. Orangey aftertaste.
