Commercial Description:
Danish: En dejlig frisk øl brygget på bygmalt og hvede, humle og krydderier. Wit fra Hornbeer er en let øl med kun 4,2 pct alkohol. Wit er med højt kulsyreindhold der er med til at lave det flotte hvide skum. Wit er øllet der erstatter hvidvinen til de lette forretter med skaldyr, fisk, kylling og andre lette sager. Wit er den idelle øl som tørstslukker efter at græsplænen er slået, hækken klippet, opvasken klaret eller sengen er redt eller avisen er halvt læst. Man kan vel strengt taget sige, at Wit stort set kan drikkes altid ...

Pours a hazy yellow with a surprisingly low head for a wit. Aroma of banana, coriander, orange and caramel. Funny flavours though ... no, no, no, this isn’t good at all. Dry with weird corn notes and some wheat. Very thin. This one goes into the sink.

Hazy orange color, huge foamy white head. Coriander, orange peels and herbs in the nose. Very active carbonation. Flavor has wheat, coriander and vegetables. Too crisp, slightly odd. Not the best of Hornbeers.

courtesy of Antonio Ruiz - fully cloudy lactic orange colour with a little persistent white foam; aroma of banana, tangerines and undefined spices; medium-bodied and acidic; a weird salty/bitter finish and a long spicy and fruity aftertaste

500 ml bottle. Straw color, insane white head that just goes everywhere. Slight, spicy aroma. Watery flavor with some wheat and spices. Desperately needs more body. High carbonation.

(Bottle) Nearly a gusher. Beer was difficult to pour because of the enormous head forming. Colour is dirty yellow and it’s cloudy. Aroma contained coriander and citricness. Light bodied palate with very high carbonation. Coriander, citricness, some notes of oxidisation and light bitterness in taste. Very short and weak afertaste. Bad bottling perhaps - definately from the same batch as the previous rater’s one.

50 cl bottle. This one had gone bad, pours only a fluffy head. Even after the bottle had been open for 10 minutes. Aroma is metallic, mostly yeast flavor. After half a glass I poured it in the sink. Not very drinkable. On the bottle of the bottle thick layer of yeast, sediments. Have to rerate.

Draught @ Lord Nelson. Yellow, a little hazy. Sour apples in aroma. The taste is a little sour with lots of fruit without being too dry. Very drinkable!
