At the source: pours pale gold with a white head. Aroma is spicy and lightly yeasty. Easy drinking and light with hints of ginger. Easy to drink. Pretty refreshing.

Poured into a nonic pint glass, the appearance was a semi-hazy yellow color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that slid off at a decent pace. Some messy lace.
The aroma had some soupy sweet fruitiness playing with some semi-spicy coriander. Some sweet grassiness.
The flavor was moderately sweet with a touch spiciness. White bready sweetness and then the aftertaste came rounding out the bready sweet along with carrying a touch of the spice. Finish leaned slightly to the sweet side.
The palate was between light and medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine.
Overall, pretty good witbier I could have again, though slightly Americanized.

12 oz. can from 6 pack purchased at Liquor Outlet Wine Cellars, Boonton, NJ. Lightly hazy yellow, bubbly head. Aroma is mild coriander, wheat, weak citrus.
I still like this style in the summer but this one is pretty basic. It’s correct for the style, nothing is off putting just a very thin body. Coriander, wheat base, light tones of citrus.

Clear golden coloured body with a nice, three centimetre, very fast-dying off-white head. Aroma of light spice, coriander seed, curacao and a good deal of citrus. Light-bodied; Strong curacao and coriander seed flavours with some licorice tucked in, as well as a smooth wheatie flavour and some touches of yeast. Aftertaste shows a robust herbal and spicey characteristic with some subdued sweetness from fruit. Overall, a nicely herbal and spicey beer with some nice flavours - but the look isn’t there at all. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 22-December-2015 for US$1,52 sampled at home in Washington on 30-April-2016 when it looked like the can was about to explode!

Can from Bottle King in Livingston, 12/5/15. Pours a clear golden color with a thin head. Light, drippy lace. Grains, yeast, spice and banana fruitiness, with a light, nut shell kinda notes too. Finishes heavier on the spice. A bit sweet, medium bitter, and slightly astringent. Odd overall mouthfeel. This feels like an okay attempt with a bit of odd / off components hanging around. I can't find a reason to score it higher than this.

12 ounce can courtesy of reggiedunlop. Thanks! Hazy yellow, moderate sized foamy off-white head, decent retention. Aroma of orange, clove, wheat. The taste is citrus, wheat, clove, tropical fruits in the finish. Thin-medium bodied, lingering spice. Solid.
