33cl bottle. Pours a light golden, fizzy but no head retention. Nice friuty yeast nose, with a very bright tinge. Lovely fruity flavour, subtle but not a killer beer. Would definitely have another.

[1987-20090205] 330mL bottle. Fresh sweet pine yeast -- it really is snowfresh! Slightly hazy, light orange brown body with a medium-lasting creamy white head. Sweet and spicy yeast flavour still has that nice fresh pine yeast. Medium body is a little spicy. Quite refreshing.

A hazy blonde weizen with a thick white head. A sweet banana aroma with tangerine and lemon notes. In mouth, a nice light weizen, creamy, with bananas and cloves. Medium bodied. BB 02-09. Bottle bought at LCBO.

330 ml bottle. Aroma has lots of herbs, some cirtus and hops. Herbs gives beer totally special aroma which separates this one from other wits. Yellow / orange coulour with very light head. Tastes like the spice clove. Interesting one.

330 ml bottle. From Estonia (H). Orange colour with almost no head. Sweet fruity aroma with wheat, spices and hints of strange sausage aroma. Flavour is sweet with fruits, yeast, coriander and cloves. Interesting beer, more Witbier-like than many other Hefeweizens.

Murky orange-yellow in colour with a thin white head, light lacing. The aroma is spicy, some bananas, flowers and some citrus. The flavour is lightly spicy, some cloves, lemon citrus, moderate bitterness. Moderately bitter mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes long, citrusy with some spice.

Not bad but is this a wit beer? Seems to thin out quite a bit at the very end.

330ml bottle from the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario.
Opened on June 20, 2008.
BB February 2009.

Pours a very cloudy golden with a fluffy white head. Quite a sweet aroma, with banana and bubblegum coming through strong, with some orange notes and a hint of yeast and herb. Incredibly smooth in body, with the banana and bubblegum flavours dominating each mouthful..An orange and citrus finish. No surprises after the aromas - a fresh and smooth weiss beer.
