tsp (113), Denmark Oct 2, 2005 (Tap. - Upper Hill, Slagelse, Denmark) Splendid wit. Spicy and lemon-ish nose. Creamy stable head. Color is cloudy yellow. I like it! TomSpears (65), Norfolk, England Sep 29, 2005 Bottle conditioned. A soft, fresh and tasty drinking beer. Just sometimes I get what wheat beers are about. When unfiltered and still living they can be very good indeed. I think it’s the filtered and gassed up versions that I find unpleasant. The softness and drinkability of this little number is really quite remarkable. Good one. **** MesandSim (5790), London, Greater London, England Sep 24, 2005 A Mes rate:
A decent nose of lemon and spice if a little dusty. It all goes downhill from there on really. Head is over as quick as it forms and when I say over I mean totally vanished, appearance all round is pretty uninviting to be honest. Looks like urine when you are ill. Flavour is initially spritely with a hint of lemon but then that "powdery" stuff comes through and spoils everything. Finish is orangy and more powder. Just nothing to get excited about. It’s better than Stella, that’s about it. It finishes like bottled sparkling water to me. A bit salty and well yes, that’s about it. CampbellWilson (533), Scotland Sep 5, 2005 Beer No 34 on the Wilsons’ Road Trip 2005. Falmouth Asda. Cloudy yellow brown with persistant white head. Aroma of lemon, coriander, orange peel. Minerally aftertaste. Very pleasant with more lemon character within the beer than is common for the style. scotty (828), Scotland Aug 29, 2005 Quite pale,with thin but persistent head. Nose is lightly spicy/friuty, palate is at first overly acidic, but that mellows and a clean fresh fruit appears, and lingers through to the not unreasonable finish. Good stuff, and while it’s not Hoegaarden, it’s still a good example of the style. Asda argo0 (6861), Washington DC, USA Aug 23, 2005 (bottle) Hazy straw body with big white head. Aroma is medium sweet, lemn, light herbal. Taste is medium sweet, wheat, lemon. Watery, soft light body. JayBaxter (386), Greater Manchester, Greater Manchester, England Aug 14, 2005 This is a Hoegaarden clone!! (Trys to be anyway!) hazy amber colour,citrus and corriander notes, its good,but its just not the real thing!! GarethYoung (1110), Glasgow, Scotland Aug 6, 2005 [bottle from asda] pours pale cloudy yellow with a moderate head. Nose has the witbier orange peel and coriander notes, but also some slightly floral and perfumed aromas. body is too fizzy, stings the tongue a bit.
