Bottle. Pours an almost clear, golden body with a small white to off-white head. Nice fruity and sweet aroma with a little spicy touch. The flavor is more on the fruity side, with some sweetness, as well as the spicyness from the aroma. There’s also some bitterness, mostly towards the finish. Slightly warming in the mouth, full to medium body, and there’s also some spicyness in the finish. Really pleasant, but nothing more. (080411)

Hazy orange with a low head. Spicy-sweet aroma of wheat, oranges and coriander. The flavour is way more tasty and complex than the average Hoegaarden, with sweet orange peels and dry wheat dominating. A wit master piece.

Pours pale yellow with light long lasting head. Aroma is citrus, cloves and a little spicy. Flavour is like a normal wit with notes of citrus, belgian yeast and coriander but the alcohol is more tastable.

Picture the scene. Very drunk and need to get home. The train is out so you have to get the bus home through traffic etc and cope with the kebab and fighting bus. As you’re thinking about killing the dunce waffling violence in your ear, a new top bloke pops up and gives you a bottle of this to drink. Stand up legend manouver. Thank you very much. The best beer from this evil baby eating brewery?

Bottle 0,25ltr: One of mine top three of the most hated brewerygroup of the world Inbev Belgium. All the bad things have some good in it, so do they. Hazy golden/orange coloured Whitebeer special for the wintertimes, more spicy and citric than usually.
