Mar 12, 2007 Drank in a footted pilsner glass. Hazy golden poor with a thin off-white head. Aromas are of citrus, coriander, floral hops, sweet corn and that classic Unibroue yeast is NOT present. Very light creamy mouthfeel, very good bitterness with a dry finish. Taste is lightly honey but is not sweet at all.

Mar 11, 2007 12 oz. bottle, best by 1/25/08: This still has a year to go for the BBD, so I was surprised that it gushed everywhere upon opening. Just a fizzy bug though, as it smells and tastes wonderful. The wit pours a hazy lemon with a caramel core. The classic Unibroue profile is at work in the nose - sweet caramel and layers of butterscotch and citrus esthers. Low carbonation works well with the malty body. Lots of honeyed wheat and fruity esthers in the body. Yum.

Mar 10, 2007 I always thought this beer was pretty watery for a wit but they do manage to make a flavourful wit. Page 469 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 228 of his 500 Classic Brews to go.

Mar 9, 2007 Bottle. Nose is mostly yeast with some lightly sweet citrus notes, but mostly lacking the qualities of a wit, with a nose much more like a hefeweizen. Color is spot on for the style. Very cloudy, highly carbonated pale yellow with a steady, strong white head, nice lacing. Relatively simple taste- sour with some mild citrus, much like the nose. Palate is crisp, but slightly sharp.

Mar 7, 2007 Updated: Feb 11, 2008thrown off by some of these ratings? Pours thick golden with quick disappearing white sudsy head. Unique taste for a belgian white, licorice, honey, coriander with a bitter & wheat-malt finish. Very sweet though and definitely from Unibroue, like candied wheat. Aroma of sour apples. i thought it was very drinkable, if not a little sticky for a wit.
