3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Brown 500ml bottle: Sep 2011. Poured into two half pint UK sleeves: clear golden colour, lager like in all ways (no cloudiness or haze), including a white head that didn’t stay.
The beer had something about it, not very ’Witbier’ maybe but certainly not as lager like as it looked. It had a different feel, some butterscotch and all spice it there somewhere.
Fairly thin in the body depth, no matter what style it sits in. I however quiet liked the tasting.

Bottle from Sainsbury’s. Oaty resin aroma. Golden amber colour, good head. Spicy resin grain flavour. Sharp with slightly sour aftertaste. Not a typical Belgian Wit or Caledonian beer but still not great.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled. An orangey gold coloured beer with a tiny pool of off-white head. A perfumed beer. Sweet and orangey in the nose. emphasis on curacao. It’s the same in the mouth. A very fruity Belgian Wit type beer with little to no spicing. High on sweetness and friendliness. Late on you do get some pepper. Pleasant.

Bottle from Sainsburys beer challenge thing. Amber coloured. Very clear. White frothy head. Aroma malt, a bit stinky. Could only smell the orange and liquorice after I read it on the bottle.
