This traditional Belgian-style wheat ale is brewed with the addition of freshly-ground coriander and Curacao orange peel. Citrus and floral aromas outshine the hops and dominate the nose of this dry and approachable beer, while the use of raw wheat adds cloudiness and enhances its mouthfeel.

Pours cloudy pale with nice head of foam and good lacing. Some light banana but a watery flavour and watered down aroma overall. A little clove and citrus, but that may be from the lemon they put on the side. Finishes clean mostly but with some sourness. Soft carbonation. On tap at the beagle.

650 ml bottle. Pours a light, slightly hazy yellow with light head. Aromas is mostly coriander, with hints of lemon and yeast. Flavours are similar not really much else and a bit watery. Kind of tastes like floor wax smells. Expecting more.

Okay foggy yellow body, small head on top. Soft aroma of lemon and fermented orange juice. Flavour is a decent wheatbier mix with a slight detergent finish. Not bad; in the middle of the pack for this style.

Cloudy. Very pale yellow. Light coriander aromatics. Palate is full-bodied for the style. Sweet, with tasty lime and coriander. Nicely balanced.
