(Draught.) Cloudy, light pastel-yellow color, thin white head.
Dryish, citrus aroma, lightly yeasty, with a hint of coriander.
Flavor likewise dryish citrus, lightly yeasty. Short citrucy aftertaste.
Lightish body, lively carbonation, clean mouthfeel.
A very typical witbier -- not terribly interesting, but exceptionally refreshing even for its type. I appreciate it’s dryness compared to many popular wheatbeers. Perfect on a hot summer day.

Jun 9, 2009 Pours light, cloudy; good witbier color, though a bit more yellow than most. Medium-sized head of white foam, vanishing in about a minute. Aroma is of malt and wheat, almost bready with a slight acidic tang; flavor is malty, grainy, slightly sweet and sour. Slight aroma of citrus and hops in the finish. Not very complex, but a good beer for refreshment on a hot day.

Jun 7, 2009 From tap at De Garre, perfectly served whith a beautiful dark yellow and hazy colour and a beautiful white head lacing nicely. The smell is grainy and coriander, but is a bit at the light side. The taste goes grainy, with some notices of wheat and barley, a light bitter agreeable taste, some touches of lemon included. The aftertaste is light sweet. The overall taste is rather sharp,more than the Hoegaarden, but perfectyl enjoyable. This is a very good, refreshing beer.

Apr 13, 2009 Tap. Nice lacing on the head, typical hazy wit body. Smell focuses on lemon and citrus. Taste leans towards sweet, lemon, grapefruit, and less clove than others. Very clean and refreshing.
A great beer that comes close but cant quite topple its older brother.
