22oz bottle from Royal Liquor poured into a shaker. Pours a rust orange with minimal light tan head. Aroma is citrus hops and some type of fruit. Possibly tangerine. Taste is heavily bitter and lightly sour. Tastes like bitter grapefruit. Medium-thin bodied with a slick oily texture. Ends with a long bitter finish. Overall, this is a damn good beer. I wish it was available around me so I could drink more of it. Would be a good bomber to split with a friend.

Hazy golden coloured body with a thick, two centimetre thick white head. Aroma of fresh coriander seed, curacao, yeast, wheat, light fresh hops and a bit of nutmeg in the mix too. Medium-bodied; Interesting taste shows a potent malt flavour at first, a ton of spices, a lot of curacao and even orange juice and a little hop bite near the end. Aftertaste has some complex flavours with a lot of citrus, oranges and spices noticeable and a faint grassy hop note. Overall, a nice and interesting wit that shows a ton of different flavours and isn’t lacking in taste at all - perhaps showing too much differences than a typical wit. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia for US$6 on 30-July-2011 sampled at home in Washington on 09-August-2011.
