Big head on a couldy yellow colored body. Wheat lemon nose -- a lot like Pledge. Sugary sweet flavor -- a bit tart and tangy. Mouthfeel is like fizzy water.

UPDATED: JUN 30, 2003 Slightly cloudy, yellow with thick billowy white head. Peppery, lemony nose. A bit watery at first. Peppery and a bit fruity in the middle with a dry and fizzy end. 6/30/03:Six months later this seems more orange flavored and lighter spiced. Much better than earlier.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Gusler (2653) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - JUN 5, 2003
A quite attractive light lemon yellow color that is a bit occluded, personable bright white head that is spumous in texture, the lace a satiny sheet to conceal the glass. Lemon like aroma, crisp, clean, somewhat sweet also, a real pleasure to the nose and the eyes, start is lightly sweet, top is light to moderate in its feel to the palate. Finish has a stinging acidity, tart, hops are spicy and delightful in their presence, very dry aftertaste. A nice palate pleasing beer for us “Desert Rats”.

Delicious, lemony, coriander flavor. I like this beer very much. An excellent beer for a hot day. No, it's not complex, but Witbier's generally are not.

Cloudy light golden with a large pillowy fizzing head. Weak coriander and citrus aroma. Body is watery and still with a mellow lemonade flavor profile. Not very complex, but is a good refresher for a hot summer day.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 RichardGretton (4028) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - MAY 26, 2003
Standard Belgian wheat beer appearance, with a citric and nutmeg aroma. Refreshing citric tinged flavour with a hint of bitterness. A very good Belgian wheatbeer overall.
2.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20 diabel (1585) - Aarschot, BELGIUM - MAY 23, 2003
White ale, but to me, it has a litlle bit a watery-colour, although it has a nice white head. It has a typical Witbier-aroma (like Hoegaarden), it smells like some kind of soda. It has even the typical (quite disgusting) flavour of the Hoegaarden beer. The difference between this-one and Hoegaarden is very small.

This beer has a light yellow body - hue with a sweet initial flavor and a light body.
2.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 6/20 Hansen (5468) - Assentoft, DENMARK - FEB 15, 2003
Perhaps a great beer, but the one I got was sour (lactic). It was precisely like danish "koldskål". Funny thing.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 duff (5484) - Lund, SWEDEN - JAN 16, 2003
UPDATED: DEC 2, 2005 Bottle. Bout time for an updtae here. I remember loving this stuf when i first started out beer hunting. I find it a bit average nowadays. Coriander, citrus, light bodied, refreshing and easy to drink. But not as special as i remember.
