341ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a hazy pale yellow. Aroma of wheat and spice. Flavour is yeasty and malty up front, with spice in the middle and a citrus finish. Better than the macro alternatives.

Dec 29, 2009 (bottle) clear yellow colour; aroma of malts with hint of citrus; clean, acidic light flavour; nothing repulsive but not much overall - simple, one dimensional

Dec 12, 2009 Smells of light pale malts and yeast. Looks like large scale production lager. Tastes like large scale production lager. I mean wit. Wait, they don’t produce wit on the large scale in north america, is this bottle mislabelled? cuz what I’m drinking sure as hedoublehockeystix isn’t a belgian beer in ANY way. It’s dull and boring and I feel like I should be drinking it at a local fight arean/hockey game providing a poor example for our youths. It’s like a lager made with a differnet yeast. Its ok to drink, but its not what you expect to get when you read the bottle. Based on this, I’d say it’s crap except that it is smooth enough of flavour and palate to drink. Still, it is misleading.

Dec 3, 2009 341 ml bottle from Seasonal Sampler. Pours a hazy straw gold with tiny white cap. Big banana, coriander and slight citrus nose. Taste is very citrusy with relatively muted banana, coriander and apple/pear. Slightly dry finish. Pretty solid.

Buttery, almost artificial orange aroma, but not uninviting. Slightly hazy yellow under a thick white ring. Sour wheat flavour with some nice butter and no bitterness, though a nice dry finish. Light body, moderate carbonation, slightly tangy finish. Solid witbier.

Oct 16, 2009 Clear, straw yellow colour, aroma is orange and yeast. Taste is citrus, malt and yeast. Pretty good Belgian white considering it’s from Ontario. Very good effort!

Sep 23, 2009 Bottle. 5.2%. After the tankhouse incident, I was not expecting great things. Pleasantly surprised. Hazy golden/orange pour with a decent white head. Aroma is orange, ginger, and coriander. Taste is citrus and grains, mild mild hops with a yeasty kick on an otherwise smooth finish. Very drinkable, and a great summer Wit.
$13.99/6 @ Liquor Depot Mayfield Common.
