12 oz bottle shared with padrefan98. Very nice looking classic for a wit. Aroams were marginal, but the flavor was great. Lots of citrus with corriander notes. Pretty good.

12 oz bottle thanks to dmac621. Pours a hazy yellow, and taste of some orange, and sour flavors. I wasnt impressed at first, but towards the end I began to enjoy this beer.

An average Belgian style ale with a cloudy appearance. Adding a slice of orange helps bring out the taste I look for in a Belgian white beer. I felt a slightly bitter finish on the sides of the tongue which made my mouth experience a slightly salty finish. Overall, it’s a good beer that I’d drink again, but I’d opt for the Hoogarden if I had to choose.

Cloudy straw-yellow with a medium head. Aroma of Belgian yeast, wheat, cloves, lemony pepper and coriander. Flavor was lightly sweet and medium sour and bitter. Spices very prevalent in the taste. Light to medium body. True to the classic style, if a little heavier on the spice.

22 oz bottle, Ty5592. Pours a hazy, almost unnaturally yellow colored body under a one finger fizzy white head that faded quickly. Aroma is of spicy wheat with some hay and straw notes. Some yeast, coriander, and orange peel. Fairly light and delicate spicing. Flavor is quite a bit heavier on the spicing than the nose let on. Lots of citrusy orange peel and coriander from start to finish. There is lots of wheat at the base, but the flavor doesn’t really emerge much. Mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with very fizzy prickly carbonation. Finishes fairly crisp with lots of lingering slightly sticky spices. This was pretty decent. Nothing eye-opening, but certainly drinkable.

Pours very cloudy yellow-looks quite appetizing. Aroma is musty wheat plus sweet lemon and peppery spices. Flavor is musty lemony wheat with a creamy orange sweetness and spices. Acidity is apparent. Shouldnt be in the same catagory as regular light wits, but fairs well regardless. Good stuff.

Sampled with The Mad Indian. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of spices, lemon, and wheat. The flavor is sweet, spices are present, and nice lemony citrus. Good brew.

Sampled with Stegosaurus. Bottled. Poured a cloudy yellow with fizzy white head. (Appearence scared me looked like a cludoy budweiser). Aroma of wheat and spice. Taste was much of the same. Very dry finish and rather good. I enjoyed this
