Most definitely, this first and foremost a wheat ale. You can taste the wheat from start to finish. A faint toasted note from the addition of flaked oats is present in the beer as well. This is a light bodied beer that finishes with a spicy layer in the end. The overall impression should be an easy-to-drink refreshing ale.

Yellow color with small head. Aroma is straw, yeasty, refreshing citrus and grapefruit zest. Taste is light-fruity and a bit spicy, and with a hint of tartness. Unfortunately, not spicy enough for my taste... Okay, fine-brewed Witbier, but could have been better.

Bottle pour split. Pours a murky yellow with a bitter spice aroma. Wheat flavor beer with an odd funk to it. Small citrus. This beer was odd for me. Not the easiest drinking. Sweet finish. Not the best from these guys, but I wouldn’t call it bad.

Bottle. Pours yellow with a big creamy head. Aroma is yeasty with sweet fruity citrus. Creamy body with soft carbonation. Flavour is yeasty and rather tart with hay, grass and lemon peel, as well as notes of honey and coriander giving a sweet finish.

Bottle poured into a shaker. Snapped the cork right off on this one. Pours a dark gold with minimal head. Aroma of citrus and honey with a little pepper. Taste is light sweet. Orange citrus, spices and a little pepper. Light bodied with a slightly sticky texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Not totally awesome though.

Sample at the tasting room. Pours a hazy yellow-gold color with a medium frothy white head that diminishes quickly to a film. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of biscuit malt, pear and yeast. Light-bodied with flavors of herbal yeast, fruit and coriander. The finish is mildly spiced with a fruity aftertaste. Decent overall.
