Serve in Tumbler, Weizen

Bottle, 4.8%. Weak clove aroma. Hazy yellow colour, small white head. The flavour is of fresh-ground pepper.

UPDATED: APR 16, 2008 On tap. Thin head, lovely opaque yellowish-white soapwater color you expect from a blanche. Faint lemon aroma with loads of coriander. Flavor is mostly sweet with expected citrus zest and coriander, virtually no bitterness. Refreshing Witbier. Damn nice with an omelette, as it turns out.

White head, white colour, sour aroma, fresh palate, sour flavor, good body Nice "witbier"

Bottle, 25 cl. It was years ago that i’ll taste this beer, it is not better now. Hazy wit with a thin white head. A typical light "witbier", yeasty en fruity in aroma. Light body. Not great but not really bad.

Enjoyed on tap at a little sidewalk cafe in Paris, "Le Gramont," on Blvd. Des Italiens about a block north of the Garnier Opera House. Yellow cloudy body. White, small head. Smells of citrus. Taste is clean, dry, also with citrus, as well as wheat. A bit tangy and malty, like a spiked fruit punch... too sweet. After taste is dry, with some seltzer water on the palate.

UPDATED: JAN 21, 2007 Our bottle had a different label. Beer looks nice, shady and pale, nose is like german weissbier. Taste is drier than german ones. Not my style of beer really, altho this could be worse. Needs to be really cold.

nice beer, lovely wheat beer, soft and fruity, well worth a try, would really recommend it.

This hazy yellow ale poured with a nice white head that shrunk rather quickly. This is a typical Belgian witbier with a light wheat flavor, complemented by orange peel and coriander. The flavor is a bit too thin and a bit too sweet for this style of beer.
