Looked and smelled very similar to a belgian white except the body was fuller and after a whole bottle you feel buzzed. Creamy white long lasting head on a hazy golden yellow body. Moderate to high carbonation. Aroma of spices, orange, coriander, and lots of phenolics. Hints of bubblegum as well. Aroma is slightly similar to thier saison. Full flavor of smooth wheat, and malt with only a hint of hops in the end for bittering. Very smooth aftertaste and refreshing for such a strong beer.

(Bottle) Sampled at the Belgium Comes To Cooperstown 2005 in Cooperstown, NY. Pours a cloudy, lemon juice coloured body. Nice banana and yeasty nose. Mildly milky. Very good but a tad weak in flavour.

355ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, Bitter and Sour 2008)
Ghastly incipid hazy creamed corn colour, flecked with particles more than actual haze. Healthy head. Spicy coriander and wheaty aroma - quite authentic Belgian wit. Zesty lemon taste. Some floury dough, but also an interesting hoppy and alcoholic punch. A bit sour too.

Bottle. RBESG -05. Yellow. Classic Wit-profile. Also salty, egg-y feel in aroma and flavour. Very much like Pietra Colomba Blanche. Bit on the malty side. Big on Co2. Bit more sourish than the regular Wit.

Bottle poured a hazy gold with a small diminishing white head. Aromas of wheat, yeast, light coriander and light citrus. Palate was medium bodfied and smooth. Flavors of wheat, yeast, coriander and light citrus with a smooth yeasty finish. Yet another disappoiuntment from Southampton. After all the talk I expected better from this brewer.

Bottle shared with the gang at Decemberfest 2006 -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a cloudy yellow with an average size lasting white head. Aroma and flavour of tart citrus, yeast, spices and faint hops. Medium bodied. Pretty good.
