Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Bottle. Pours a dull gold with small white head. Wheaty, yeasty tangy aroma. Oranges and spices are prevalent along with a little clove and coriander. Nice and sweet-tasting with some tang to it. Smooth and crisp. Lemony and zesty. A solid attempt at a witbier but Avery can do alot better.
Pours a pale lemon yellow with a big white head. Aroma is quite odd; some lemon and coriander, but also distinct notes of bacon. Flavor is quite wheaty, with some orange peel and banana, and some other indiscernible spices. Interesting beer.
Very bland in general. Aroma and flavor had nothing going. No fruit, spice nothing. dissapointed.
