Jul 16, 2007 This one was served with an orange. Had the standard Belgian White aroma and flavor. For some reason I remember this reminding me of Blue Moon. I remember this being nice and pleasant although I prefer my beer to be served without fruit.

Dec 4, 2006 Smells wheaty. Faint color. Taste is pretty dry throughout, so the wheat isn’t too much. A pretty decent beer of the style.

Nov 8, 2006 On tap at the Monte Carlo and served with a lemon wedge. Golden straw color with a white head and a nose of orange, apricot and soap. Lots of curaco orange peel with peach and apricot fruit flavors. Mostly orange with some soft spices. It was tastey but clumsy for a wit.

Sep 14, 2006 Draught @ The Brewpub: My first Monte Carlo pint at this brewpub inside the hotel. This was their "Brewmaster’s Special" on my visit so I figured I should try it while I could. Poured excellent with a cloudy yellow body, brown edging, and a foamy head of perfect size. Aroma rich in wheat, lemon, and orange that oddly lost potency the warmer it got. Taste is strong at first, heavy in yeast and citrus. It pales a bit as it warms and adds an odd nuttiness. All told it’s a bit of a citrus-heavy bland flavour for the style, but not at all offensive. A good effort.

Jul 20, 2006 On tap @ Monte Carlo poured a clear pale yellow with a small dissapating white head. Aromas of wheat, coriander and light citrus. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of wheat, coriander and light citrus with a crisp lightly sweet finish.

Jun 20, 2006 Hazy light gold in colour with medium carbonation. Aromas of grainy wheat, coriander, flowers, and a bit of chlorine. Very lemony flavor, along with an interesting lactic sour vs. slightly sweet thing. Medium bodied... but more like its underattenuated as opposed to wheaty thick. Overall, it’s a fairly middle of the road wit. Perhaps a bit too straightforward and lacking in a bit of the funky yeastiness of its Belgian counterparts.
