0.33 l bottle from Alko. Hazy yellow color, very fizzy. Dry, herbal, grapefruity, lemony and peppery aroma. The flavor follows closely the aroma. The mouthfeel is oily yet fizzy. The aroma and flavor is quite nicely herbal and citrusy but the carbonation is too filing.

Draught, smallish head, hazy pale lemony colour, malty bready aroma with a touch of yeast and caramel. Lemony fruity flavour with candied fruit, medium bitterness, medium bodied, suprisingly bigger than expected, light sour aftertaste. Good wit, a bit different.

Draught at Kolme Kaisaa, Helsinki, Finland. Pale yellow colour with small white head. Sour (lactose/yoghurt) wheaty aroma with some spices. Flavour is very sour for a Witbier. Also wheat, citrus and some spices. Fizzy. Not bad but surprising. Interesting.

330ml bottle (, Helsinki)
Yellowy amber, brief fizzy head. Little aroma, touch of wheat, that’s all. Crisply carbonated, but a slightly soda-watery experience in the mouth. Gentle wheaty base, tiny touch of barky bitterness, or even liquorice-like dryness on the tongue. Some fruity spiciness too, quite interesting actually. I first thought this was just a slug-it-back summer thirst-quencher wit, but on gaining a couple of degrees the gruut comes through really nicely. Finish is liquoricey.

Light, hazy yellow colour, thin receding head. Intense herbal aroma. Thin, watery texture. Flavour is dominated too much by the herbs and spices. It doesn’t taste enough like beer!

Draught @ ZBF 2009, St.-Niklaas, Belgium.
Unclear medium yellow color with a average, frothy to creamy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, spicy - coriander, rubber - smoke. Flavor is moderate sweet and light bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium to light, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20090307]
