Freshly toasted coriander seeds are added to the grist and at the later stages of the boil, resulting in a festival of flavour and aroma. This delightful beer is a real thirst quencher, and is particularly good as an accompaniment to curry.

Cask at the Willow Walk (JDW), Victoria. Amber with a tight cream head; floral aroma; refreshing citrus flavour with perhaps a dash of coriander; then sweet grapefruit before a dry and spicy finish. A straightforward refreshing pint.

02/03 0.5 l bottle courtesy of Doggythedog, thanks for sharing! It poured dark golden body with small head. Nice spicy, yeasty and malty aroma, some coriander, biscuit, fruity, totally as I like it. Flavor is typically weak though, slightly bitterish and dry, consisting mostly of coriander spice and biscuit malty. After its thin body aftertaste can last only short, but its characters made is fine sweetish vanilla and biscuity. Nice beer which misses whole body, if only had more of it!

Bottle from beershop.hr, shared with heavy. Poured a bronze colour with a small head that went away at a medium pace. The nose is an assault of coriander, but basically ends up smelling like cookie dough or something later on. Taste... dry, spicy... reminds me of the thyme beer I’ve had. Maybe rosemary... Anyway, dominated by the spice and not much else is there. Bitterish but lacking a bitter aftertaste. Notes of lemon. Dunno. Wonder how it would be without the coriander. Not really my type of beer, kinda tasty but gets tiring quite fast.

Bottled 500ml. -from www.beershop.hr
Dark golden coloured, medium sized white head that went away slowly, honeyish nose. Moderate malty, slight hoppy and mild fruity with coriander that dominates. Bit watery, quite dry finish.
