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.

Ein erfrischendes Ale mit Orangenzeste und Kardamon. Dies ist ja schon einmal interessant. Auch dass es dieses Bier schon längere Zeit in kleineren Wiener Supermäkten gibt, finde ich faszinierend. Es ist ein angenehm zu trinkendes, leicht schmeckendes (aber nicht fades) Ale, das im Körper und Abgang wunderbare Gewürzaromen hat, die ein feines Gesamtkonzept ergeben. Geschmacklich top, aber aufgrund der miesesn CO2-Bilanz würde ich es nicht zu oft genießen.

hazy yellow, white head. malts and wheat and perfume in the aroma. flavor is wheat, citrus, coriander, flavor seems to be driven by spcies and stuff added to the beer, and not so much by yeast, but it does taste quite good, and reminds me of hoogarden. pretty decent mainstream wit

opalescent pale yellow colour, medium sized white head; aroma of coriander, some floral and grainy notes as well as minimal signs of cardboard; taste is dominated by sweetness and coriander with only minimal citrusy sourness leaving back some moderate bitterness in the mouth; not bad, but a bit to sweet

330ml bottle bought at Wine Rack in Leeds last summer. A hazy, pale yellow body under a chalk white head. Wheaty nose, lightly spice. Mixed flavours of wheat-like fruits, bread, and coriander. Semi-sweet endnotes. Fresh and soft on the swallow. Accepted (shared with Skinnyviking and Finn, Tromsø 14.01.2015).

Hey this was pretty good! I’m tired of pointing out my loss of love for witbiers, but here the light "barely there" phenols made this a welcome beer. Aroma was light, dought with spicy notes that surely were from the coriander. The spice was also found in the flavor that was dominated instead by grainy oats, and thus a nice fuller mouthfeel from those same oats. Clean finish. Typical witbier look in the glass. This is overall one of the better wits I’ve ever had.

Bottle at home from Acado split with Sarah. Pale yellow coloured pour with lasting fine white head. Aroma is pretty nice delicate belgian wit yeast with orange and lemon citrus, lavendera nd doughy grains. Flavour is composed of doughy wheat grains, floral lavender, orange citrus, little perfume. Nice delicate flavours. Palate is grainy wheat, light refreshing body, airy carbonation. Little citrus tang in the finish. Pretty good.
