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

12 oz. bottle. Pours hazy gold with a thin off-white head. The aroma is orange rind, butterscotch, cinnamon, and cloves. The flavor is citrus sweetness, with a slight bitter undercurrent, and a little sour in the finish. The palate is smooth and creamy, with a just a little graininess and carbonation. Overall, this is a mellow and flavorful beer, with a wonderful flavor and mouthfeel.

Enjoyed at the Grafton in Chicago, IL while drinking with an old co-worker. Appearance a bright hazy yellow ala Hoegaarden with rich white head. Aroma of coriander and cloves, slight spices, also a bit of bubble gum.
Taste of banana and bubble gum but not too sweet, has a nice smooth profile, an easy drinker, probably better than Hoegaarden. Refreshing on the first hot day of the year.

12 oz bottle from Half Time. Pours hazy pale gold with a foamy white head. Decent levels of orange and coriander aromas. Kind of mixed. Med body; foamy carbonation. Flavor is mostly citrus, and still think coriander, but there’s definitely something wheaty underneath. Or so it seems. Much more substantial than many wits. Must be the doubling.

Tap at Pony Bar. Pours a hazy, yellow-gold with a filmy white head. Lemon and citrus dominate the aroma with some mild malt notes. Somewhat floral. Flavor is sweet and light with light breadiness and some tart citrus. Despite the lightness, the flavor is rich. Medium in body with fizzy carbonation. Finishes sharp and lightly sweet. Very good.

12oz bottle. Poured a cloudy yellow color with a big white head that evaporates almost immediately. The aroma has a strong backbone of spices and coriander with a hint of citrus. The coriander and spice character continues in the flavor with a lemony citrus in the background. Very light bodied and smooth with a great drinkability. Nice Brew!

On Tap at Mr. Beery’s in Sarasota. Pours pale hazy gold with thin white head. The aroma is full with grainy malts and wheat as well as some pepper and a touch of sweet banana. The taste is similar going from assertive wheat and grains and then quickly into a thin layer of pepper. By about midway and to the finish banana wheat and apple sweetness take the experience home.

Bomber, about 1 ½ years old. Golden color like a pils, with almost no head. Spicy, tangy aroma with light horse blanket. Flavors of sour lemon candy, ginger ale, orange. Really quite sour—from its age? But tart and refreshing. Interesting and nice enough but a bit weird.
