A "double strength" version of classic Belgian-style "white" ale. A deceptively light ale spiced with Curacao Orange Peel and coriander seed.

Drought. Hazy pale yellow with very small white foamy head, citrus aroma, high carbonation, fresh citrus taste, medium finish with lemon peel aftertaste. Very easy to drink and quite tasteful.

Rcvd in trade.
The appearance had a hazy yellow colored body with a thin one fingered white foamy head that died within about a minute.
The smell had an almost perfect blessing of coriander spices to a lemon citrus blend that adds a spectacular sweetness and just enough yeastiness to assist in a wonderful spectacular aroma.
The taste was sweet to spicy with the citruses of lemon and orange to exemplify a more than adequate flavoring for an American brewer for a witbier. The aftertaste is slightly spicy and citrusy. The finish is not as dry as expected but still felt dry and quick as I did expect.
The palate is about a light to medium, and fairly sessionable. Carbonation is just right for a Witbier and its good to me as well.
Overall, where the hell did thing come from? Are all of the Southampton beers as good as this? Holy Moley, I would love to have this one again and pair it with some seafood.

Not sure what this is supposed to be a double of but certainly not flavour. Pours blonde with ok head. Initial smell of coriander and citrus peel. Average carbonation. Light palate, but aroma has some sweetened malt. Finishes with light sweetness. Bottle from Finger Lakes Beverage Center.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours hazy and cloudy bright golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big lemon zest, pear, orange zest, coriander, banana, clove, pepper, wheat, bread, floral, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of yeast and spicing notes; with good strength. Taste of big lemon zest, pear, apple, orange zest, coriander, clove, banana, pepper, wheat, bread, floral, and yeast earthiness. Lingering notes of light fruits, citrus zest, coriander, banana, clove, wheat, pepper, bread, floral, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Awesome balance, robustness, and complexity of yeast ester and spice flavors; with a moderate malt balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied; with a very smooth, crisp, and lightly prickly mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with nearly zero warming present after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic witbier style! All around awesome complexity, balance, and robustness of yeast and spice flavors; and very smooth to drink. A highly enjoyable offering.

27.06.2013, 0,35l bottle @ Spice Market NY:
Small creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly fruity, wheat, yeast, banana, dried fruits, dough, citrus. Taste is kind of strange, slightly concentrated, light malts, alcohol, citrus peel, grass, hay, yeast, almond essence, citrus. Medium bitterness. Fair enough, a little boozy taste.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large whtie head. Aroma is ok with some citrus peel the main thing that jumps out at you. Flavor is again lots of orange peel with a chalky heavy malt. Probably heavier than should be for the style. Finish has more citrus and corriander bitterness. Deffinalty a amped up wit and I ended up liking this more that I thought I would.

12 oz bottle. Pours hazy pale orange with little particulates floating around; has a quickly collapsing white head. Aroma consists of coriander, fruit gone bad, candy (red licorice is the first thing to come to mind). Taste is lightly sweet, a bit tart and finishes dry. Notes of cough drop and Red Vines licorice. Highly carbonated with a thin body. Not terrible, but I was hoping for more from this.

At a tasting, thanks David D., small creamy head, hazy deepish yellow colour, aroma of orange, spice and some sourdough, flavour of almong and some sour fruits with some wheatiness in the back. Heavy and unapealing, single white is enough.

Bottle. Pours very hazy golden light amber with a medium white head that dissipates quickly leaving minimal lacing. Aroma is lemon, spicy wheat, orange zest, spices (coriander), lysol. Flavor is the same, lightly sweet and fairly spicy with orange notes prominent. Very light bitterness from the peel. Light body, prickly mouthfeel. Peppery aftertaste. Not really my thing.
