Poured from a brown 16.9 oz. bottle. Has a golden color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of oranges, spices. Taste is wheat, oranges, spices, refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

From the bottle, it pours a hazy amber color with a modest white head that soon diminishes to a nice ring and leaves some lacing. The nose gets some slight medicinal aspects, with the mouth following with some witbier tastes of light spice and light malt.

From a bottle. Pours a white gold, generous foaming. Coriander-forward, with a very dominant presence on the nose and sip, along with a floral orange. Slight tartness, lactic perhaps? Nice finish. This was a pleasant surprise.

Slightly cloudy gold, generous, rocky white head, great retention and lace
Orange, earl gray and green tea, and light wheat aroma
Sweet and refreshing with a slight tartness, like someone made sweet tea with a mix of earl gray and green tea and added an orange
Light bodied with appropriate carbonation
I really dig this. Who would have thought such a great wit would be from Ukraine.

Poured from the bottle into a tall wheat ale glass.
Pale orange and nice dark yellow bronze body color. Very creamy fine head of about two fingers that slowly settles. No lacing, but lots of fine visible carbonation through a somewhat cloudy body.
Nice aroma. Kind of coriander to spice soft heavy. Light touches of small honey and caramel like malt, and almost a bready tone on the nose as well. Pretty solid.
Palate is quite solid. Light touches in the mouthfeel, kind of a hair wet. Lots of added orange sweetness to this it seems, but a good refreshing malt touch with the mixing spicy and sweet qualities hinted on the nose. Finishes with a bit of orange zest, and candied rind almost in flavor. Finishes with a nice spicy pop, but also has a lot of orange candy sugar flavor.
Real interesting beer, lacking a bit of malt backbone, but certainly an enjoyable beer to drink.

Notes via stream of consciousness: This is kind of a Belgian-style witbier from a brewery in the center of Ukraine, which is a little odd. Here are the notes from their importer's website: "Brewed based on Belgian wheat Wit-type beer technology. Unfiltered wheat pale top-fermented beer of milk-yellow color. Has a complex and rich aroma of malt and spices in combination with notes of fruit. The taste is slightly sweet, spicy malt with a piquant accent of orange and coriander. For the production of this unique and refined beer selected barley Pilsner-type malt is used in combination with more than 50% wheat malt and with the addition of hops, has a citrus flavor. When brewed, coriander seeds and orange peel are added. Exquisite beer, which will satisfy all lovers of hopped drinks. Fried wheat bread smeared with olive oil and Provencal herbs successfully emphasizes the taste and aroma of this beer. It goes well with soft cheese, seafood and fish." I think they've actually nailed it. It's slightly darker than most examples of a witbier but it's not too far off. The head is a short but creamy white cap with fair retention decent lacing. The aroma expresses both the orange peel and the coriander as well as the wheaty malt. There is a little bit of an odd-note to it, but I don't know what it is or where it might have come from. The wheaty malt, orange peel, and coriander seed are all present in the taste, and it's nicely balanced by a moderate bitterness that leaves it a little sweet upfront but then drier in the finish with some herbal hop notes, a dollop of malt, and some mildly spicy coriander lingering. The body is medium to medium-light, which is good, but it's lacking in carbonation. I know that's a regional preference but in a beer like this I feel you really need to emulate the style a bit more. Still, I like it. If there's any other less-than-perfect factor to it, it's that it's just not quite as bright as most other examples. Everything seems to kind of bleed into the other, but I think that might actually be because of the lower carbonation level. If it has a little more zestiness to it everything might pop. Overall I'm quite impressed, this is much better than their Zhigulivske lager, although I'm guessing that's their biggest mainstream beer and this is a small production specialty. In the end, this is pretty nicely done.
