On tap at Bar Hop. Hazy straw pour, 1" delicate white head. High delicate carbonation. Aroma is bread dough. A little sour. Some melon and hunt of clove and banana. Medium body, thick feeling, although the palette is refreshing. A little but sweet and sour with a sour medium finish. Very nice although drink it before it warms too much.

Hazy pale pour with thin white head and lace. Wheat, grassy aroma. Crisp fresh beer. Herb spice feel.

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2013 Bottle [650ml]. Pours a cloudy pale gold with an average size lasting frothy white head. Mild aroma of yeast, grassy hops, a hint of banana, pale malt and light citrus fruit. Bready flavour, also mild, of wheat, yeast and citrus first followed by grassy hops and herbs. Medium bodied. I don’t really get any Belgian aspect to this but it’s a nice, easy-drinking summer beer -- even though it currently isn’t summer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

650 mL. Pours golden, a fluffy white head. Aromas of banana, toasting spice, cut grass and pear. Dry and easy drinking with medium carbonation and a good clean mouth feel. A quencher.

650 ml bottle from brewery. Pours a clearish bright yellow colour with modest-sized white head. Aroma of wheat malt and only the gentlest fruity/spicy notes. Flavour is bready with some lemon, banana and a light yeasty spiciness. Clean tasting but fairly straightforward. Decent.

bomber from bellwoods. bottled jan 14, 2013. slightly hazed yellow, lasting white head. very basic wheat ale aroma, no hops, no fermentation chacter, very plain. the flavour is similar, very clean, very balanced, boring wheat ale. i really dont know why they call this a belgian wheat ale, its much more american in style, although its under hopped to be an american wheat. bland but not problematic.

Bottled. Slightly hazy, muted gold with a white head and lively carbonation. Aroma is yeasty, grassy, slightly fruity, no spice. Taste is clean and dry, with a light body and lingering hop bitterness. This is easy to drink and fairly well balanced, but beers from this brewery tend to be more intense and closer to perfect.

Cloudy pale blond, aromas of wort and sweet grain leads into like taste with almost shocking lack of curaçao, coriander or other ’wit’ spices. Taste starts bready and short (grainy but sweetens up later. Has a sour-dry core with a semi-dry palate and a long dry finish, a cool palate refresher between heavier BW beers.

[4653-20120812] Tap. White wine characteristics in the aroma mixed with raw green peas. Clear, yellow body with a quick foamy white head. Fresh light green pea yeast flavour. Medium body. Delicate and refreshing. (7/3/7/4/14) 3.5

Tap from the brew pub. Pours cloudy yellow with no head. Lively carbonation. Aromas of yeast, banana and maybe a hint of lemon in the finish. Light bitterness in the finish as well. Really nice effort.
