May 24, 2008 I really enjoyed this beer. The scent has a wonderful citrus and coriander nature. The beer itself is very aesthetically pleasing, with a pale yellow cloud in your glass. In terms of flavor, it is very refreshing and easily drinkable, yet still with an assertive spiciness. The easiest spices to notice are hints of citrus and perhaps some coriander.
This is a great beer worth at least one try by fans of Belgian pales.

May 24, 2008 Updated: Mar 7, 2009Thanks to zinister. Nice cloudy, off white color with lots of tasty yeast and wheat floating about. Nose of lemon, tartness, and spices. Very carbonated, fluffy body, very tart and bitter. Light body and a bit alcoholic. One of the better wit beers on the market and what Hoogaarden should aspire to. 3/7//09. Also on tap at the Flying Saucer-even better on tap. Nice beer.
