Cask gravity at Rare Breeds BF 2007. Cloudy orange/gold with lasting bubbly white head. Nice spicy wheat. Bit odd.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm Clear golden, airy head. Lemony wheat aroma. Fairly sweet and rather light bodied. Sweaty and fruity with coriander and orange marmelade. The British ale character clashes with Belgian witbier spices resulting in a mess. However it’s a highly quaffable mess.

Cask conditioned at Merton Beer Festival 17-02-07. This beer poured a cloudy strawlike colour without a head. Of all the beers this dissapointed most, I’m not convinced there was anything particlualry wrong with this rather that it was just completely underwhelming. I for one could not get the coriander or lemon, getting only a slightly metallic smell with possibly some wheat there as well. The taste hardly picked it back up either and came across as being very flat and forgettable, I really couldn’t find much too taste at all, looking at some of the other comments maybe we didn’t get a particularly great one but I for one just felt it was totally devoid of character and had little or nothing to offer and yet some people I served were telling me that yes they could get the coriander and lemon, hey-ho!

Bottle. A hazy orange beer with no head, inspite of it being very lively when opened. The aroma is sweet with powerful notes of orange as well as a good deal of hops, but also light notes fo coriander. The flavor is very sweet and quite wheaty combined with strong notes of oranges and some spicys - definately coriander, leading to a dry wheaty end.
