Commercial Description:
Blond, cloudy, milky (colloïdal by cold). The cloudy appearance is created at low temperature but disappears when the beer gets warmer or when it is kept too long in the cold. Fine fruity with a scent of the used spice, coriander and bitter orange. Smooth beer, thirst-quenching but mild, slightly acidulous, powdery consistency on the tongue, not bitter

Pale yellow cloudiness hue, with an off-white head, yeasty citrusy note, with a nice spicy coriander accent, and a juicy lemony aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with zesty citrusy mildy acidic character, with a candied orange peel fruitiness, spicy coriander, and hint of liquorice spiciness, wheaty malt note, leading towards a juicy lemony, and faint lactic finish.

Nice head aroma of grapes and banana, very nice. The flavor is similar, but more oranges than grapes.

Cloudy yellow color, creamy white head; pretty spicy aroma of coriander, citrus and wheat; light body, watery texture; flavor is also quite spicy and of tart wheat and lemon with slight dishwater notes; I was expecting a bit more after the promising aroma.

birra bianca estremamente beverina,molto complessa all’olfattiva,si sentono molto distintamente arance e coriandolo. gusto morbido,ma forse un po priva di corpo

Bottle. Pours a murky yellow with fizzy white head. Aroma of tart citrus, a bit of orange, light wheat malt, light barnyard. Flavor of light wheat malt, some tartness, lemon, light orange, a bit of barnyard. Mouth feel is light, soft body, lively carbonation, very watery. Overall, would make a GREAT refreshing summer beer.

colore giallo chiaro,torbido, la schiuma è soffice, ma fugge via veloce, con una effervscenza moderata. profumo agrumato, note di lievito. E’ al palato che ogni volta rimango deluso da questa birra, non capisco come l’associ sempre ad un detersivo, benchè non ne abbia mai bevuto uno, c’è una frizzantezza acida di fondo, che sovrasta le vaghe note di frutta e spezie.

In bottiglia, colore opaco/torbido, schiuma fine. Al palato poco convincente. Punta finale acidula non gradevole.

A very good ‘small guy’ alternative to Hoegaarden. Wonderful nose of slate, minerals, pepper and a touch of smoke. Very Riesling-like. Palate is more fruity with softer and sweeter citrus fruits. The flinty, peppery note kicks in again late. Relatively dry for the style.
