Cloudy pale orange,mild head. Great aroma of yeasty dough,banana puree and hints of citrus. Flavor is pretty subdued mild wheat and hints of citrus tho quite refreshing. Expensive at $3.50 a bottle. I’ll take Hoegaaden over this.

Cloudy (almost milky) pale orange colour with a wheaty, banana and citrussy aroma. Taste is creamy and as you’d expect citrussy....to me better than Hoegaarden.

11.2 oz bottle poured a cloudy golden brown [ peculiar color for a wit] with a large lasting white head. Aromas of lemon, light banana, wheat and some spice. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of wheat, lemon, light bananaand spice with a crisp refreshing finish.

Poured a very hazy pale yellow with a small white head. The aroma was yeasty with notes of spice, lemon and banana. The flavor was acidic with banana and spices. Dry spiced finish.

Pours hazy pale golden with a fully receding, foamy off-white head. Aroma of banana, orange peel, light acidic lemon. Taste is yeasty, lightly sweet wheat, and quite fruity esters. Mouthfeel is light/medium bodied with lively Belgian carbonation. Quite good.

Very good white, flowery arome, some citrus and wheat, very refreshing, poor bitterness. Just a bit expensive.

Draft at Zeno’s. Good aroma with no strong notes, crisp. Keeps a good thin head. Flavor is good. As it warms it gets better. Very smooth and enjoyable. Cheers!

Best before 18 03 09. Pours a hazy light brown into a tumbler. White micro head with excellent staying power. Lemon and sour grass notes. Frothy with upfront sweet malt and a dry sour lemon finish. Almost de Dolle-like.
