Rated this one in Amsterdam. Appearance was a small white head, carbonated, cloudy, fair lacing, and a straw yellow hue. Malty and fruity aroma. Sweet, smooth and malty flavor. Smooth mouthfeel. Light-medium bodied.

Golden, unclear. Short head. Fruity aroma. Good carbonation. Sourish flavour, mild, but somthing odd and dry in the finish. Synthetic citrus? Watery palate. Overall quite a mishap.

The DM & Hotstuff’s European Honeymoon trip beer number 104. This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of finely sized mostly diminishing bubbles that left behind a good lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was cloudy and yellow in color. Its aroma contained notes of mild malt and other mild notes typical of a good wit. Its mouth feel is initially tingly with a hoppy bite and a malty but soon disappearing aftertaste. Its flavor contained smooth mild wit beer flavor notes and favored the malt.

Hazy light blond colour with thick but rather small head. Aroma is malty and sweet with some banana and coriander, only hints of bitterness. Flavor is not as fresh as the aroma, but has a malty wheat taste with just a little sweetness. Aftertaste is a bit sour.

Very pale pineapple color, piles of pretty white head. Aroma is subdued with lighter, wheaty malts and a vague spiciness. Becomes a full-fledged wit in the flavor, crosling is correct in noting a slight butteriness, along with the typical orange and coriander. Not nearly as exuberant as the standard, Hoegaarden. Is killed by a fairly prominent metallic aftertaste. OK, but nothing special.

Sampled at the Ostend Beer Festival 2004 in Oostende, Belgium. Light straw. Biscuit-like and buttery malt under notes of toffee, lemon and coriander. Strongly Lemon-laden palate. Notes of caramel, sugars, tangerine and orange. Finish is butter toffee. Great example of the style and a great palate cleanser as well while tasting a bunch of bigger beers.

Its like Hoegaarden with the orange taste!!I do like it,but it doesnt pack the same punch.It has a nice hoppy aroma with that charistaristic cloudy appearance that I love,but with a small fast dissapearing head.The flavour & palate are both nice,but a milder version of the white beers that I have sampled before.
