Jul 3, 2003 Along with blanche de Namur, this is the best wit I have tried yet. Ligh amber, honey coloured beer with a cream coloured heat, not big but resistant. Beautiful spicy, bready aroma with citrous notes. Complex flavour profile,, sweet orange peel, coriander and a symphony of other spices coming through in the background and finish. These blend wonderfully with a slight lactic character, bitter onrantd and a light hop bitterness. Some honey notes in there as well. Bery soft voloptous mouthfeel and finish.

Sep 2, 2007 8 years ago whe taste this beer a first time @ the brewery self.
Bottle, 33 cl. (@ home bought by Willems)
For me possibly, the best wit I have tried yet. Light amber color, with a creamy white head. Aroma lovely spicy, with citrus, yeasty. Medium to full body. Taste is nice but complex light sweet, coriander and a pallet of other spices. Very good character, bitter and a light hop bitterness. For me it’s a great whitebeer !

Aug 13, 2008 Pours a rather cloudy, opaque "muddy" orange. Lots of yeast particules present.. Medium head that dissaperas in a few minutes. Yeast is very prominent in the aroma as well as bread. You can definetly taste the cereals in this beer. Slightly citric, tarty taste. Very different kinof wheat beer. Excellent. A+ in it’s category

Jul 12, 2005 750 ml bottle.
Appearance: thoroughly hazy orange color, copious cap of creamy tapioca. Looking very nice.
Aroma: spice arrives first, the coriander is king, a little clove?, rounded off with fruit, lemon, peach, apricot, orange...nice and lively...
Taste: a sumptuous sizzle sets in on the mouth, whirls and kicks a bit, then fades softly, while urging one to drink anew. Fresh, mellow, but flush with flavor. Yeast is hard at work at this one, too, but the spices are all over it, tantalizing the tastebuds, and the citrus fruit provides considerable zest.
Medium bodied, with a light, fruity finish.
Taste is terrific, and mouthfeel is a treat.
$7.59 for the bottle, and worth every penny and then some.
