| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 20, 2007 Pours a pale cloudy yellow with a decent white head. Spicy aroma. Taste is sweet malt, citrus and coriander. A very good Belgian; much better than Blue Moon. chimpscampee (566), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Feb 14, 2007 Much too sweet for my liking a hard layer of glop stuck to the bottom of the the bottle. The herbalspice flavor was unmemorable. Why bother? LinusStick (1852), Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Jan 25, 2007 I picked this up out of curiousity..knowing I don’t care for this style much. To rate objectively...it is not that bad. The pour was a crisp yellow with a white finger head. The aroma was spicy and wheat. The taste was sweet n’ wheat. I was skeptical about my neighbors to the west (of me) attempting a Begian White but they did it with class. I don’t particularly care for the style but as far as the style goes..not too shabby. This beer can’t part the sea...but maybe the Ohio River. beerbuzzmontreal (2924), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 22, 2007 On tap at the brewery. The pour reveals a hazy yellow color with a thin white head. Very refreshing and enjoyable aroma and flavor of citrus and herbs. The palate is light and creamy while the carbonation is gentle. A well-done witbier. verymerrymonk (257), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 15, 2007 Pours a cloudy blond with a healthy white head - looks really nice. Aroma is sweet with bananas and sugar. A little too sweet for me, and the sweet aftertaste was unappealing. FoolishMortal (966), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 12, 2007 12oz bottle. Hazy golden color with a medium sized rocky head. Coridander, citrus zest, and a myriad of fruity esters in the aroma. Perfumey veneer over a sweet orangey flavor, wheatish characteristics begin to manifest. Residual sweetness in the finish, some estery component in the aforementioned manners. Mouthfeel is light, with a full texture. Trooper11 (467), Suffolk, Virginia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 16/20 | Jan 2, 2007 On tap at Great Lakes Brewery. Cloudy yellow brew with a foamy head with serious hang time. Mild malty lemongrass aroma, pleasant Reason # 1 not to drink BMC. Gentle bitterness, very nice malt/hops balance for a clean finish. Every day drinking stuff here.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 1, 2007 Pale yellow strw with fluffy head that leaves a soft lacing on the side of the glass. Sweet malty smell. Taste is malty wheaty and citrus.
Super easy drinking. Sweet and nicely effervescent for a witbier. Pleasing way to start my Great Lakes rating adventure.
I can almost transport myself into a deck chair, with my feet in a kiddie pool after mowing the lawn with this beer. (At least I don’t have to mow the lawn!)
