Pours a hazy straw color, very briefly topped by an eighth of an inch of white foam. No real head retention to speak of - unless you consider a thin film head retention. Scant webby lacing. Mild sweetened lemon in the aroma. Wheat beer tang combines with lemon meringue. Tart sweet and enticing. Quite mild and somewhat flowery. Dry finish with a touch of salt. Salt? Light body, light carbonation. Good beer but lacking oomph.

Very cloudy yellow in colour. Long lasting pillow soft white head. Quite subtle aroma, spicy, yeasty with a bit of vanilla. Quite citrusy in flavour, and suprisingly tart/tangy. Very refreshing.

Cloudy pale orange appearance with a decent white head. Pleasant light wheaty hop aroma. Slightly watery taste with a yeasty wheat back bone. A decent but simple beer. Pleasant.

Bottle from Tescos (Finest French Wheat Beer. 750ml, in a shaker style glass. Pours cloudy pale yellow with a light foamy head. Aroma is sweet with citrus fruit. Flavour starts off nicely sweet malty but is soon overwhelmed by an odd sweet and fruit (lemon) combination, with some light wheat. Odd spice in the finish and some cheesyness that reminds me slightly of the flavours I got out of Schultheiss Berliner Weisse. The flavours aren’t perhaps working that well together, but it’s still fairly pleasent and very easy to drink. Not the ’finest’ witbier out there, but quite nice.

This corked and caged bottled brew whose cork was marked 2-27 poured a large sized head of foamy white colored mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a hazy yellow body with no visible carbonation and a fair lacing. The aroma was fruity musty and floral. The mouth feel was initially smooth with a mellow finish. The flavor contained notes of mellow mild fruity malts.

Bottle from Tescos (Finest French Wheat Beer). Cloudy yellow colour with decent sized foamy white head. Fruity aroma. Taste is not bad; malty, citrus and grainy, some hops and slight cloves. Quite refreshing and drinkable.

At last a French witbier with some genuine character that doesn’t taste revoltingly synthetic. Milky lemony haze heaped with froth and lace. Aroma standard orange peel and crushed coriander seed, with a sourish wheaty edge, and some alcohol. Lemony and peppery with hints of grain, booze and cardboard, and a background whiskeyish note. Impressively full-bodied, natural-tasting witbier/blanche.

bottle, bought at the Eurotunnel terminal. Pale yellow, cloudy, large head. Aroma of cinnamon. Cinnamon is present in the flavour, too, together with other spices (e.g. coriander) and hints of citrus fruit. Spicy and pleasantly hopped finish and a touch of mint in the aftretaste. Very refreshing and full of fascinating herbal flavours.
