Hazy, yellow color; medium-sized, white head. The aroma of spices, wheat, citrus fruits, and a hint of yeast. Same notes in refreshing, semidry taste with slight , herbal bitterness .

Pours a gold color with a foamy white head that lasts quite a while. Slight aroma of lemon, orange and spices. Tastes of grains and spices. Crisp and dry.

From 12oz can into pilsner glass, fluffy white head, cloudy pale yellow, lots of rising CO2, sweet floral-peppery aroma, taste follows with pleasant lemony orange 'astringency,' saison-like. Pretty decent, one will do me for now but wouldn't turn down one on another occasion.

12 ounce can into a tulip glass. Best by 5/2024, had 5/6/24.

Pours a bright, pale yellow, a little cloudy, with a two inch head of spongy foam with good retention and a decent amount of foamy lacing. Aromas of wheat, orange, peppercorn, some coriander, light yeast. The flavors pretty much follow the nose: wheat, coriander, orange, peppercorn, light lemon, light yeast. Smooth, a thin feeling light body, well carbonated.

Very good aroma, but the flavor suffers from the slightly watery feel. Pretty good overall. Certainly competitive for the style.

A 4 way head-to-head blind ranking 10/2022:
#1 Allagash White: More floral, coriander, and spice. Really enjoyed the floral spices from this one.
#2 St. Bernardus Wit: Bright lemon and lime citrus. Some juicyfruit. Delicate and clean.
#3 Dogfish Head Namaste: More clove spice, bread malt, and bitterness. Surprisingly well-done and balanced.
#4 Blanche De Chambly: Strong lemon citrus and wheat. Heavier. Still drinks nicely but more citrusy than I expected. These were all great so ultimately it comes down to preference.

Overall: A very nice Belgian wit here. Drinks nicely and well-rounded for a wit. In the blind test this one leaned slightly heavier on the bread malt and clove spice. Balanced and well-rounded. First time at this one, but this one drinks along with the big guys. (Rating: 4.00)

I like the can artwork, great use of color. The pour is copper colored with a small amount of sediment near the bottom of the shaker pint glass. On the taste, I'm definitely getting the orange and lemongrass. In addition to, I'm getting some of the coriander & peppercorns on the backend. This was quite a flavorful wheat beer. All in all, it was interesting to try a beer with lemongrass & peppercorns added to it. Who would have known that something I like to add to my salad would also go good when I add to my beer. Cheers!

Poured a slightly hazy orangeish/copper color with a small white head.
Smell is that of oranges, coriander, and yeast.
Taste is just like the smell.
This beer is not the kind that I usually drink a lot of, but this one came in a mixed box from the local beer store. Overall, it's a decent beer and it's a good thirst quencher.
