Pure Icelandic glacier water and a classic witbier recipe combine to create our Icelandic White Ale. Crafted clean and crisp, the balanced addition of orange peel, coriander, and rolled oats ensure this beer remains incredibly flavorful and refreshingly drinkable.

Аромат не резкий, даже слегка слабоват для Витбира. Чувствуется кориандр, легкую пшеницу, и немного сладкий солод. Слегка мутноват, практически без пены. Вкус, особенно по началу очень жесткий и тяжелый для данного сорта. В основе из за сильной карбонизации. Во вкусе чувствуются специи, солод легкую сладость. Радует что полностью отсутствуют дрожжи. На послевкусие неожиданно начинает ощущаться хмель. Спустя 20 секунд после глотка усиленно ощущаешь солод, прямо как в лагере.

Bottle from lowcostbeer.com. Consumed 2 months past BBE. The mouthfeel to this is great; lovely pillowy malt character. The flavours, although not complex for the style are very pleasant and it becomes a nice tasty sessionable beer. Notes: Cloudy gold with nice creamy looking white head. Aroma of citrus peel, coriander, metal, lemon-lime pith, hints of natural flora. Taste is sweet, bready, some tangy citrus, coriander and modest bitterness come through in the finish. Near to medium bodied and has a nice pillowy malt character, nice fine zingy carbonation works really well here.

330 ml can. Pours a dull amber with light head. Atomas of wheaty malts and a bit of coriander. Flavors lead with coriander followed by wheaty malts and a bit of orange. Not much to the nose, but tasty enough.

Short pour at the Thirsty Growler before giving up. Pale, mostly clear, soapy thin head. Wheaty, premium ale nose. Premium beer with a dull, defenseless, wheaty middle. Slight acid, a touch of pepper but mostly boring. Useless.
