Tasted first time @ march ’08. Today again. Bottle, 25 cl. Hazy light yellow color with thick head. Aroma fruity, bit yeast, spices (coriander, ...). Thin to medium body. Taste bit citrus, good balance, coriander, graininess, spices, fruity touch. Good refreshing.

Draft at Belga. Cloudy yellow, frothy white head with good lacing. Aroma of banana and juicy fruit. Taste is lemon and banana. OK.

on tap @ BCTC 2008. Didnt really care for this one. Pours a hoegaardenish pale yellow eith nice white head. Aroma was somewhat fruity, juicy friut gum, yeasty. Taste IMO was way off. Had the wit-ish components but was slightly sour or off

Had this on tap at Belga Cafe in Washington D.C. Poured in a .5L mug, almost opaque bright yellow with a big frothy white head. Even though it was poured from the tap, there was a fair amount of sediment in the bottom of my mug. Aroma is all fruity, yeasty alcohol esters with no noticeable hops. Flavor is heavy on the fruit, bananas and peach, with a slightly malty, grassy backing. Fairly enjoyable beer, although nothing revolutionary. Paired well with my mussels steam in Hoegaarden.
