Green Alien labeled 12oz bottle pours out sort of clear matte gold with thin bright white head. The aroma has the label stated orange peel and coriander coming through in a muted blunted sort of fashion and really little else. The taste is similar with carbonation enhanced orange notes and faint coriander spices slowly giving way to wafer thin layers of wheat and grainy malts. I think there might be hints of banana and a bit of lemon like acidity in there somewhere too.

Hazy tan with a malty, spicy aroma. Malty on the plate with light spice and what seems like artificial citrus. OK, but really more of an Am Wheat than a witbier.

Bottle from Liz. Pours light dishwater gold with a 3 finger foamy white head. Aromas of zest and coriander. Typical Belgian wit. Maybe a bit wheaty, but it’s got zest, mild spice and light bitter. Perhaps a bit more barley/body than some wits, but recognizably in the family. With time it seems to get a little astringent. Tasty and refreshing.
