Very cloudy yellow with a short-lived white head...citrus and slightly green banana nose...a candied, honeyed flavour....maybe some orange tones..sweet, smooth, tingly....wish I had another right now!

12oz bottle from Pick’s poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy light yellow with minimal white head. Aroma of wheat with a little lemon. Taste is light sweet. Wheat, banana and some light lemonade. Full bodied with a creamy and sticky texture. Lively carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, it’s ok. I’m glad I didn’t get a whole 6pk though.

Pours a cloudy pale yellow with quick disappearing head. Smells like dried wheat and some musk. Wheat on the palate with hints of banana. There are some floral notes as well. Easy to drink. Solid.

Pours a cloudy golden hue with a decent head. Bananas, floral, little citrus, malty creamy aftertaste. A nice change up from the heavy winter stouts. I cant stop drinking this stuff and the price is nice too.

Sample at the Dude-a-thon 2012 at Studio 35. Hazy gold pour with a thin white head. Aroma of bubble gum, banana and creamy malt. Flavor starts with creamy malt and moves to orange with a strong banana finish.

A-: Hazy/cloudy golden straw body with a thick fluffy white head which subsides into a nice thin head.. moderate lacing... S: Wheat, citrus (orange), clove... T: Sweet citrusy notes lemon-orange, belgian yeast, wheat and clove... nice balance... M: medium to light body... crisp and refreshing finish... O: Solid American take on the belgian witbier..

Draft. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Clove and coriander in the aroma, with wheat and lightly sweet malts. The flavor has coriander and other spicy notes, some sweet caramel-ish malts, and wheat. Pretty good.

Pours golden, cloudy after the yeast dispatch, with a fluffy white head. Nose is belgian yeast, light orange, and some spice. Taste is sweet with spice yeast character. Palate is light to medium with a tart and slightly bitter lingering finish. Good stuff. Another solid Bell’s beer.

Pour is a hazy creamy yellow. Slight tint orange perhaps. Nose smells of wheat and light toffee. Cream cheese. Mild nuttiness. The spice really comes out on the palate. Zingy white pepper and maybe some mint or eucalyptus. Some very mild fruit flavors integrated well like melon and citrus. Lemon. Very good beer. Bell’s strikes again.

Draught. Pours a super cloudy yellow with a thick white head. Aroma of lots of wintery spices (clove, ginger, pepper). Flavor of sweet fruits, citrus and lime, melon rind, and spices. Hearty palate, this is no weak Belgian wit. Pretty good beer, very drinkable. 7/4/7/4/14 (3.6/5)
