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

Bottle. Pours a white golden hazy body with a big white head. Citrus, coriander, wheat and lemon grass, a bit dusty and faded i suspect poor keeping conditions. Decent i guess.

I’ve been drinking all kinds of witbier as of late, sheesh. This pours a hazy whiteish yellow with a big white head. Aroma is fruity pebbles with some orange and spicy yeasty notes. Flavor is nice and drier for the style, some lemon and a little bitter orange peel. Somewhat spicy, pretty good all together.

Cloudy yellow pour with light white head that quickly disappears. Citrus notes are the overwhelming note in the aroma, taste and palate. Nothing really special here...just a very drinkable beer.

Pale yellow color with nice white head. Fruity aroma. Every time you can feel different taste, different spices. Also can feel yeast. Nice finish. Good!

Pours with a crazy head, even into a chalice, Though it’s a nice bright yellow. Aromas of citrus, a little bitterness. Need to wait for the head to settle down to actually take a sip. Nice mouthfeel, some tastes of wheat, citrus, a slight hint of detergent in there too. Some other spices that make the taste almost....festive. I guess it’s alright, it’s almost like drinking perfume though.

Hazy pale yellow with a lasting white head. Aroma has fruity orange, wheat and a hint of spice. Dry and grainy wheat flavour with orange and spices mostly in the finish. An alright wit, but nothing special.

Nice cloudy appearance and great head. Citrus and abit of underlying wheat. low ABV is quite disguised.

25cl bottle from den belgiske ølbutik, helsinge. cloudy yellow, small thick smooth white head. very nice spicy, citrussy, slight peachy refreshing aroma, also some sweetness in there (powdered sugar). flavor is quite dry, a bit yeasty, peachy, slight citrus, slight spices, stronger coriander note. palate is well carbonated, a little too bubbly i think. overall a nice dry one, but a little too sweet and skunky, as well as a little too agressively carbonated/ too bubbly.
