Some bread yeast and a little coriander lightly soured with citrus. Finishes with light bitterness, good balance. Cloudy orange with good head and lacing. Average carbonation. Tap at Summerfest DC.

On tap @ Rosamunde, Brooklyn, NY. Hazy deep golden color with thin creamy white head and good lacing. Aroma is grainy with coraiander notes, spicy, yeasty and citrus hoppy. Taste is refreshing sweet and sour grainy with spicy mouthfeel and pleasant bitter finish. Medium to full body, creamy texture and lively natural carbonation in palate. Hoppy Belgian ale - thatβs almost perfect combination to me...

12oz bottle. White IPA. Hazy orange body. Big frothy white head. Zesty coriander aroma. This is an odd one, as it actually tastes like you mixed an IPA and a White ale. The herbs and spices are way overboard, and really dominate the beer in an unenjoyable fashion. Not horrendous, but not at all a quality example of the style. Instead of leaning into the smooth yeast tones, it has a harsh, medicinal, herbal thing going on. Not one Iβd seek out again.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Shop Rite, 11/2/13
Aroma: The nose is Belgian yeast, lots of spice, and some citrus/orange zest
Appearance: It pours a cloudy yellow color with a small, bubbly white head and drippy lace
Flavor: The taste is similar, with yeast and spice flavors, a little sweetness and a little bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, the feel leans soft, and it has a nice, dry finish
Overall Impression: This is a decent one. It has a decent look to it and pretty nice feel to it. The flavor is solid, but not exceptional. It is plenty drinkable, but it isn't a real favorite for me.

Slightly hazy golden coloured body with a copper glow and a thin, half centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of wheat, coriander seed, grass, flowers, apricots, pears, bubble gum, anise and a hint of earth - very nice and complex. Medium-bodied; Pungent light hoppiness with a good bitter kick at the end, some coriander seed freshness, a bit of yeast and wheat, some light curacao and lemon notes and a dry, grassy and herbal finish. Aftertaste quite complex with the dry and grainy flavours really coming through and a hint of bitterness still noticeable from the hops. Overall, a good blend of a wit and an APA - not horribly hoppy, but dry and grassy, showing the wit side, and very nice for the summer. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Lebanese Taverna Market in Arlington (thanks Kev!), Virginia on 26-June-2013 for US$1.99 sampled at home in Washington on 20-July-2013.

White, I think it to be a witbier, but its a beldjie. Smell is mild fruity hop flower perfume. Rather strong on the uptake, seems more than 6%. Certainly not a well mannered wit, heheh. If its a beldjie, not sure how this rates along side orval, heheh. Some hops in there make it imperial grape fruit rinds none the less. Surprizingly long bitter finish. Rate this an eye pah. Decent sizzle almost makes it palatable to a lager lover, almost.

12oz bottle. Poured a hazy, light-orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was lemon and orange peel, with notes of yeast, grains. Flavor had citrus notes, yeast character with plenty of wheat grain notes. A little lighter than I would have hoped, a touch thin, but pretty drinkable and refreshing.

A hazed blonde wit with a thin white head. In aroma, nice banana and cloves with lichee. In mouth, a smooth wit with grassy notes, coriander, fruity and refreshing.
