THIS JOURNEY IS NOW COMPLETE! This was a challenge I undertook from Feb 2011 to Feb 2012. Thanks to everyone that kept me going! Feel free to read through and comment, I am now also periodically adding reviews here as I sample other beers that I did not come across during the challenge.

Kooinda Belgian Witbier
Pow! This is like a quick, stiff jab to the chin. The combination of the orange peel, coriander and carbonation gives this wheat beer some real punch.
It almost seems over carbonated though, it has a real sting in it's tail that is just a little bit overdone. The flavours that you briefly get at the start are good, but its soon zapped by a sharp fizz and citrus bite. Maybe that's the appeal but personally I'd rather enjoy the ingredients used to brew the beer.
It's a niche beer, and their Pale Ale was similar from memory, it doesn't push my buttons but I'm sure others would disagree.
6.5/10
