(33cl fliptop bottle) Pours a clear yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of grain, caramel, and citrus. Flavor of caramel, yeast, coriander, orange, and toasted wheat.

Bottle at home. Pours pale gold with a white head. Got a strange herbal hint to the aroma, touch of easter egg about it. Quite sweet but quite drinkable, some tangerine and citrus.

Beetje muf kleurtje, troebel, stevige witte kraag. Vrij zoet, zacht. Karamel, alcohol, beetje kruiden. Apart bier, zeker voor een lichtgekleurd bier. Lijkt niet op welk ander witbier dat ik geproefd heb. Je moet zeker geen verfrissend zomerbier verwachten als dorstlesser in de zon. Meer een bier voor in de herfst of winter.

bottle in a pint glass - pour cloudy orange with white head provides lacing. Nose is yeast and caramel malts. Aroma is caramel malts and a nutty factor. Taste is sweet. Body is medium. Carbonation is flat. Don’t understand how this is a witbier. a good brew but past its prime.

Säuerlich-fruchtiger Antrunk. Der etwas komisch wirkende Fruchtton setzt sich im Mittelteil fort und steht dort fast alleine, eine würzige Note setzt sich auf niedriger Intensität fest. Kräuteraromen im Nachgeschmack. Angenehmes Bier! Test vom 5.9.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,10,9,10,9,10 - 9,60

Pours a light honey orange with a wee head of white. Interesting aroma of sour honey, sweet caramel and a little vinegar. A perfect milky body of smooth wheat fills the palate with perfectly balanced flavors of malty citrus, a little pepper, a touch of vinegar and butter? A long velvety finish rounds this brew out with a light lingering of pepper and buttery vinegar. The buttery vinegar flavor is a little odd but in no way sticks out. This is a fantastic example of my ideal body in a beer: thick, chewy and smooth!

I’ve drunk it on tap. Spicy and yeasty. Orange coloured. Very appreciable Witbier, with some fruity feelings. Nice stuff! Refreshing enough.

A: The pour is a hazy straw color with a nice white head. S: Lots of sweetness in the nose. Lightly floral and honey-like with sweet orange aromas too. Some sweet wheat crackers too. T: The flavor is also very sweet and reminiscent of honey. I like the floral, orange blossom flavor and it goes well with the sweet citrus and wheat notes. M: Somewhat light in body with a lively level of carbonation. D: An interesting sort of witbier. A lot sweeter and less "yeasty" than I’m used to.

At l’Autre Oeil. Pours blond/golden, clear. Not much of a head. Aroma is cereal (mainly wheat), honey, alcool and butter. Has a slight vinegar taste, acidic. Yeast? Otherwise, really cereal-led, slightly, but really slightly fruity. Bitterness in the finish, but not much before. Vineagar taste killed it all. Might have to revisit.

Golden colour and a bit hazy. Has a white head, moderate lasting. Aroma of wheat bread with a load of butter, not wrong, just nice. Flavor is sweet, notes of chocolate and caramel. Creamy texture.
