Small bottle in Vientiane, Laos. Pours a cloudy golden yellow with a two finger head that lingers. Aroma is citrus, coriander and spice. Taste is dominated by the fruit and coriander which gives it verve. Flavoursome and refreshing. Very drinkable.

Typical cloudy bright yellow Witbier colour. Big aroma of clove, coriander, orange zest, and funky yeast. Taste is more of the same, with notable spice and a slight sourness from the yeast. The carbonation is huge, as expected, and you do notice it as you swallow. This has been open for over 10 minutes and it's still very carbonated. Overall a good example of a Belgian Wit, which simply is not one of my favourite styles.

Poured from a bottle at sub-fridge temp. Pours a murky yellow with abundant white head. Sticks around for a while. The nose is lemon meringue pie, oranges, apricots, grass, a slight funky dirty smell, and wheat. The taste is fantastic. Orange creamsicle, cake, lemon, wheat, vanilla, apples, apricots, and a bit of wet grass. Delightful and refreshing. The mouthfeel is fairly light and fluffy. Overall, this is a wonderful wheat beer.

Some unique qualities here. This beer is hazier than most Belgian wits. Somewhat more orange than bright gold. In the nose and flavor, it's very floral. All I could think of on first sips were flowers--really lively taste. Coriander comes through for sure, and orange peel factors in significantly. It's delicious, and let it warm a bit, as the flavors become even more intense.

Has a cloudy pale orange appearance.
Medium light carbonation with about a medium body.
Aroma is clove,wheat flower,bread,cereal, malt and very light citrus.
Taste doesn't stray far from the aroma,light and satisfying..
Overall it was a very well done beer that I would try again
