Aug 27, 2006 Bottle.
Poured deep yellow and hazy, the head on mine foamed up huge and then shrank down and stuck around for a while. Smells like oranges and spice with a wiff of wheatyness. Very nice citrus (I got mostly orange) and spice balanced with a really nice sweetness, a little bitter on the finish. It’s taken the top spot on my favorites list!

Aug 21, 2006 It’s hard to comment enthusiastically on a wheat like this where nothing is really out of the ordinary. To me, this is standard wheat fare in everything from color to taste, although I did enjoy it on our rooftop terrace on a hot sommer’s day. I find this to be overrated and my favorite wheat remains La Celisette and lesser brother Celis Wit.

Aug 15, 2006 Updated: Sep 20, 2007Long lasting small white head tops a muddy dirty dark yellow body (looks like the by-product of someone who’s been drinking too much St-Bernardus ABT 12). Citrusy nose with some bretty notes. Taste is very fruity (peach, mango, watermelon) and somewhat grassy. Thick malty and yeasty body with a doughy feel/taste. Hopping reminds of some classic pils although it only shows-up quickly in the finish. By witbier standards this is a pretty heavy beer (densely fruity). One of my favorite witbier.

Aug 13, 2006 Bottle. Very bright lemon on the nose upon opening the bottle, with some orange added upon pouring. Pours a murky orangeish-tan with a very minimal head that lingers about. Not much in flavor at first, but some mild yeast and some citrus come forth towards the end, with possibly some vanilla or mocha as an aftertaste. The second swallow gave me a very small taste of grape bubblegum. Slighty above average as far as Belgian wheats go, but not too bad.

Aug 9, 2006 From a 11.2 oz. slender brown bottle with a best before date on the back label, 31.12.06.
Poured a cloudy pale, dull orange hued golden with a foamy white head that settled into a thin lacing.
Aromas of yeast, coriander and light spices, orange zesty and sweet malty with small whiffs of alcohol.
Good carbonation and a crisp, dryish and smooth light bodied mouthfeel.
Delicious witbier taste, dusty earthy yeast, mild spices, clove and coriander, a soft bitterness from the hops, a mix of orange zest and lemon juice, subtle sweet maltiness and a dry yeasty and citric finish, very good drinkability.
This witbier is one of the better ones I’ve had, quite quaffable.
