33 bottle at Beyerd. Pours cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is estery, coriander, orange peel and light yeasty. Flat malty/wheaty, light estery, coriander and mild orange peel like citric touch. Dry and estery to spiced into the finish. Simple.

Bottled. An unclear light yellow beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet citrusy with a light spicy note and so is the flavor, while the body is thin.

Hazy light yellow color, average white head. Smell malts and a little citrus. Taste lemon and sweetness. Low body and carbo. Nothing special.

Taste is pretty good. It’s quite a decent witbeer. This beer is better if you just drink it, instead of breaking it down to rate it.

Pours out cloudy light orange, a bit darker then expected. The head could be begger, sticks ok to the glass. Smell is citrus, banana, spices, yeast. The taste is wheat, yeast, citrus, also the banana comes back slightly, spiced. Should be a bit less watery, but drinkeable on a hot day. Aftertaste is a bit less pleasant, light sour-bitter dry with something weird in it.

Bottle. Pale blonde, cloudy. Yoghurt and coreander in the aroma. Dryish, slightly spiced grainy flavor with some vague citrus notes. Not really impressive.

300 ml bottle. From Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
Pale hazy yellow colour with small white head. Citrus, wheat, coriander in aroma. Flavour is sweeter with citrus, banana, wheat, some spices and malt.

Bottle from Mitra Bergen. Bright yellow body with medium head. Nose of bananas, peaches and citrus. Flavour of bananas. Quite tart. Smooth. Ends a bit watery and spicy.
