Pours cloudy yellow with a dissapating white head. Aroma of lemon and citrus with a touch of Belgian yeast. Taste is the same with a bit of pepper. Nice and light and refreshing.

Pours a cloudy golden yellow color with a thin fizzy whit head that immediately fades into a thin ring. Not much lacing. Sweet citrus aroma with hints of lemon and especially orange peel. Slightly spicy with some peppery lemon zest notes and a bit of bready yeast. Pretty carbonated up front, maybe too much so with some peppery lemon zest spiciness, citrus peel(some lemon but mostly orange peel), a slightly creamy body and a crisp dry finish.

Unreal Witbier. Great carbonation. Great spicy taste with lots of citrus. Wish I could get more.

750 ml bottle from Imbibe Wine. Nose of yeast, caramel, light cloves and nutmeg. Very lightly hazy yellow with a medium off white head. Flavor was peppery spices, banana, cloves, and light sweetness.

Sampled at a Mead, Cider and Beer Tasting sponsored by Binny’s Beverage Depot, Glen Ellyn,IL. Poured to my wine/sampler glass a hazy, straw hue with just some white film and a thin ring of foam. The aroma was light notes of malt, wheat, sweetness, and spice. The flavor added a light, prickly tartness and light, dry finish. A little thin but refreshing.

Bottle, 12oz, at Bishops Arms, Karlstad. A clear, golden beer with a minimal white head. The yeasts could be shaken loose from the bottom to produce a hazy beer, but was really stuck. Citrus, orange mostly, some hops and malts, but quite weak and lacking on coriander. Hoppy bitterness, some spicy notes and pale malts in the flavor. More interesting than the aroma. Dry, medium body, quite effervescent. Coriander, oranges and bitterness in the finish. A bit disappointing compared to other Ommegang beers, but a decent one. 090802
