Bottle Light yellow pour with decent head and no lacing. Aroma of wheat, yeast and a bit of spice. Same with the flavor but with a bit of lemon and other citrus. Very clean and smooth. Good, but nothing extraordinary.

This looks like champagne with extra foam. Relatively strong wheat aroma. Taste is just mild wheat and citrus, some floral. Clean and refreshing.

Looks just about perfect for a white: pale, cloudy yellow with a big, frothy white head. Aroma is outstandingly floral. Flavor isn’t overly complex but very refreshing. I could deal with a bit more citrus but it was incredibly easy to drink and had a very mild aftertaste.

Foggy golden with a decent white head. The aroma is dominated by citrus; orange peel and hops. The coriander is a bit weak. Flavour is spicy and bready with an unexciting but pleasant finish. Smooth mouth-feel. A thirst quencher.

Sometimes I find a beer that isn’t as complex as other examples of the style, and I say "Oh, I wish this beer was more complex." This witbier provides an interesting counterexample. It is certainly not as complex as some famous examples, but nevertheless I found it to be a really nice straightforward refreshing beer. Aroma hints at spicy phenols and wheaty malts, perhaps minty. Then the flavor is mildly phenolic, light citrus and grainy wheat, yet otherwise clean with a refreshing smi-dry finish. Perfectly hopped. Clopudy white-yellow color, big foaming over-flowing head. Good stuff.

Pours a unfiltered golden color with a large white head. Has hints of different citrusy fruits and spices. Weak on the pallete. Finishes clean.
