larsniclas (3036), Gothenburg, Sweden Oct 5, 2006 [Bottled]
Spicy and herby; wormwood.
Full taste but a bit short.
A fine witbier.
Tmoney99 (3717), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Nov 1, 2008 Bottle from River’s Bend. Poured hazy white with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Moderate yeasty citrus aroma. Medium body with a light sticky texture and particles. Medium citrus, yeasty and spice flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. My expectations where met. dornoy (637), Lyngby, Denmark Sep 27, 2008 Thick white head on a dark cloudy body. I would have expected a lighter beer, but this one was really strong. Probably what they mean by "Double white". Not bad, but not an everyday beer either. kiefdog (517), Tampa, Florida, USA Sep 9, 2008 75cl bottle from Knightly Spirits (Orlando, FL). Pours a cloudy dark golden color with a thick and foamy bright white two finger head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma is typical witbier -- bread, yeast, grain, and spice. Somewhat astringent. Faint hint of citrus. Flavor is very different from the nose--almost faint at times -with muted notes of wet hay, sweet malt, and veggie and meat notes. Clearly visible and sizable chunks of yeast. Generally light bodied with faint finish. Sledge Jr (2720), Omaha, Nebraska, USA Sep 8, 2008 In the 750 mL bottle from Beertopia. I fine beer for $6.99, let me tell you. Explosively carbonated with a dense cake of yeast in the bottom that just would not go into suspension no matter how hard I swirled. Mild spiciness, a tinge of black pepper on the tongue. I had hoped for more orange, but mostly got a tart citrus. This is chunky with ginormous flocculent yeast colonies abounding throughout the pour. Even though I only managed about two-thirds of all the yeast into the glasses, It was still way too much yeastiness and bread dough to get down. Bullit (615), Glasgow, Scotland Aug 31, 2008 Hazy orange colour, white head. Aroma has a lot of artificial esters, wheat and bread. Very unpleasant. Flavour has wheat and fruits. Bitter finish. The aroma ruins everything.
