Pours a mostly clear golden coloration with a small, fizzy head. Smells of doughy malt, orange zest, coconut and lime, with just a hint of mint as well. Taste follows the nose, with some doughy, slightly grainy malt and strong notes of orange zest, coconut and mint, as well as just a hint of lime, green apple, coriander and black pepper. Finishes with a light bitterness and tartness and some orange zest, coconut and mint lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

A fascinating beer due to the single-hopping with Sabro hops, which bring unique notes of coconut and mint to this Wit. While it may not exactly be traditional, I still feel that it works out quite well, even though I could perhaps do without that strong coconut character, which still integrates itself well enough here. The great balance of orange zest and spicy/herbal notes keeps this together rather nicely, with the coconut providing an interesting additional facet.
