Can. I like White IPAs. To me this is what an IPA is suppose to taste like. Slightly cloudy gold with a three finger head. Good stuff.

Lemon, coriander, wheat malt, and lemon peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with large white head. Mildly sweet lemon, coriander, wheat malt, and moderately bitter lemon peel flavor. Good body.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is some generic hops with a lot of coriander. Flavor is again a bitter generic hop with loads of coriander added. This is a more hopped up wit than IPA. It's ok for a one off sample but nothing more than that.

Okay, a bit too heavy-handed with the coriander, adding a soapy, mildly vegetal backbone to an otherwise basic pale ale-ish IPA. Citric hops add mild notes of grapefruit, while the back end mixes crackers, grass, and white bread. Crisp and bright, though, and the nose is nice.

White can with blue letters. Looks like a hazy pale lager. Smell is somewhat like IPA but a little different, like some coriander in there. Taste is IPA ish but it does seem to be a littel milder in flavor. Comes across more like an APA but with a little bit of astringent bitterness. Yass, that spiced coriander IPA thang sher gits in yer face. It even becomes a little annoying in the end. Could not appreciate. A little brighter on the taste buds compared to many ubiquitous IPA of today but still, a little rude.

Can. Hazy golden body with a frothy white head. Aroma of coriander, toasted grain, lemon, citrus, floral hops. Hint of banana, clove and a whiff of dirty dishwater. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Light spice, lemon, citrus taste. Light lingering bitterness that turns a bit astringent because of it's not working well with some of the wit characteristics. And there's some onion, too, in the finish.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 11/28/2017. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, mango, melon, red apple, citrus peel, coriander, peppercorn, clove, pine, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/earthy hops, spices, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, mango, melon, red apple, citrus peel, coriander, peppercorn, clove, pine, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate pine/citrus peel/herbal/grassy bitterness and peppery yeast spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pear, pineapple, mango, melon, red apple, citrus peel, coriander, peppercorn, clove, pine, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/earthy hops, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and zero lingering hop/spice astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is an excellent Belgian white IPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, citrus/earthy hops, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink; with the modestly bitter/spicy/drying finish, never aggressive. Great balanced fruity/spicy yeast, spices, and citrus/earthy hop complexity; with a nice pale/wheat malt backbone, with minimal residual sweetness. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Hope this style gets more popular again soon.

Hazy golden copper. Hoppy wheat. Citrus, light yeast spice. Medium bodied. Quick finish with light bitterness. Decent.

Sample at 101BK Westerville during the "Mid Week Beer Geek Features" event on 12/20/2017. The beer is a slightly hazy golden color with a medium thin white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Aroma of citrus, hops, spice and malt. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, coriander and bready malt. The finish is herbal yeast and hops. Decent overall.
