A really nice, refreshing white beer. Citrus smell, with lots of stuff going on inside the glass. I enjoyed the flavor, finish, and everything about this beer. The problem is that the rating system is set up unfairly for this style of beer. Even completely ordinary white beer score high become the tendancy of the aroma and appearance to be pleasant. This was no where near the best white beer I have ever had, but there was certainly nothing wrong with it. My only complaint is that is wasn’t very original and nothing above the ordinary for this style. Certainly to be enjoyed during the hot summer months, but don’t travel to Jumet just to give it a try. Cheers.

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2007 Tap. Milky-yellow...I think this is their witbier and I just don’t know the Flemish word for wheat? (ed: Turns out to be so). I think I’ve had this before (ed: Turns out to not be so). A pretty typical hefe...yep, banana, clove, spice. Maybe a slight soapiness that isn’t quite enough to deduct a point. Average, but it was a bit of a waste of alcohol-tolerance given that I’m in freakin’ Belgium.

GeneralGao (3515) - Iowa City, Iowa, USA - MAY 14, 2007
Draft. Hazy yellow color. Head was white and reduced rapidly to a thin film. Nice aroma of yeasty bread dough and citrus. Delicately sweet on the tongue. Tasted of cereal grain, subdued orange, and a touch of coriander. Not bad.

OleR (3510) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 14, 2007
On tap @ Bistro Trapje, Brugge. Beautiful apperance; Huge and creamy off-white head over an unclear pale yellow body. Aroma of light spices, sweetish citrus and a some earthy hops. Taste is very clean, rounded and mild. Slight acidic lemon and wheat. Light body. Short dry end. Well balanced and utterly refreshing.

RoyceH (1129) - Hesperange, LUXEMBOURG - MAY 6, 2007
Bottle, Aikman’s, St Andrews. Cloudy blonde, thin white head. Very citrusy wheat, hop. Lasts and finishes quite sweet, coriander, citrus hop throughout. A bit inoffensive.

Hazy yellow with off white bubbly head. Yeasty, Citrus, lemon, banana & wheat. Soft carbonation - smooth body & mouthfeel. Fresh & fruity wheat. Pleasant!

BeerBiker (1412) - Odense, DENMARK - APR 14, 2007
UPDATED: APR 19, 2007 [Sampled several times on bike in France.] Got this draught with a lemon after a hard day on bike and got immediately in love with Brugs Wit. Bought some 6-packs for the price of nothing with home and swallowed it all summer long with this lovely taste of coriander, yeast, banana and citrus. A great beer for a biker on tour. I’ll remember it forever for this bikejourney in France!

(Bottle, BB 23-11-07) Pours a cloudy pale yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, lemon, dustiness, and clove. Flavor of wheat and light lemon with a soft, yet somewhat watery mouthfeel.
