Tap at Toronado, San Diego. Cloudy yellow in color with a whiff of hte usual belgian white aroma, but with some more maltiness to it, giving it added depth. Taste matches with a touch more sweetness than normal. I enjoyed this.

(bottle BB270709): Pours a golden color body, very cloudy, yellow. Whitish head, diminishing. Very fruity fizzy aroma, banana, spicy. Lots of aromas. Fizzy fruity taste, some spice. Cooling aftertaste. Some dusty, might be the malts. Tasty with the spices.

Thanks to Irishboy for sending me this little gem. Appearance: Muddy orange with some small floaties, a tiny but stubborn head. Aroma: Citrus and toffee, some herbs there too, nice and fresh aroma. Flavour: Lovely, smooth citrusesque like start with a wheat finish, some sweetness in the finish. Very enjoyable.

Neon gold with fair white head. Obvious citrus and clovey coriander spices erput into the olfactory. Fruity citrusy taste is overwhelming and dominates the brew. Lingering sweetness, and slightly cloying. Nice for a very hot day.

Pours cloudy amber with a foamy medium head. Citric ester aroma, with some heavy spice. The wheat flavour is dominated by the pleasing lemon and spice, the spiceness lingers with a slightly sweet finish. Quite full bodied for its style. A great thirst quinching witbier, but with enough elegance to be interesting sipper also.

Smells like toast with jam and honey. Flavor starts out fruity with some zest, but seemingly watery as well. Then it transitions into the finish with a nice crisp feeling and a slight tart sourness that is quite superb. More nutmeg in the aroma, more clove in the finish.

Bottle. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is light fruits like banana and lemon, as well as dough and a light spicy note. Medium body. Flavor is lightly sweet with banana, lemon, chestnut, nutmeg, and dough. Very good, really a top notch wit.

Bottle. Medium high creamy and lasting white head. Hazy milky yellow body. Strong lemon grapefruit banana aroma. Pretty carbonated and slightly bitter lemon banana flavor. Long bitter sweet aftertaste.
