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

Draught. Cloudy pale yellow color with a big white head. Aroma is yesty, spices (corriander) fruit (orange). Flavor is fresh, and moderate sweet with a average duration. Nice witbeer.

Ungstrup (22911) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - AUG 27, 2002
An unclear very yellow beer with a good head. It tastes a lot of lemon/citrus and is very acidic but at the same time very fresh. The overpowering taste of lemon - makes me choose another witbier when that is what I want.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAY 14, 2005
UPDATED: JAN 9, 2006 (Bottle 75 cl) One of the first Belgian whites to enter the market after the succesful relaunch of Hoegaarden by Pierre Celis. Paler than Hoegaarden, but with a smaller head. All the typical perfumy coriander and orange peel notes that make witbiers such a wonderful and quenching experience. This is one of the best. 040993

yespr (20656) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - OCT 4, 2007
75 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a huge white head. Citrus/lime fruity aroma with a minor spice note. Very smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Wheaty flavoured with a mild spicyness and a refreshing citrus/lime note. Ends soft wheaty and fresh without any bitterness. Overall an extremely smooth beer which lacks some more flavour to be really good.

KimJohansen (10337) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - JAN 6, 2008
Hazy yellow with medium head. Coriander, oranges and yeast is in the aroma and flavor. My favourite witbier. Nice on those hot summerdays.
