First a note to the company. MAKE THIS AVAILBLE EVERYWHERE!This is THE best beer ever. It is even better then Celis White. Everyything a beer should be. Beautiful color of gold, A fantastic smell. Creamy mouthfeel, terrific flavor. This does not even need a lemon or Orange. I never had anything this good. Wits and Wheats rule

Bottled. Cloudy yellow. Stronger aroma of corander, cloves and orange peels. Sweet and rounded, firmly malty with notes of vanilla. Both flavourful and refreshing. Can Interbrew really brew a beer this brilliant?

an amazing white beer, suble in aroma and extremely tasty. A little less "flat" than your average white beer. Apparently only produced in winter time. Pretty much no aftertaste. No head. Very interesting beer.

Blom (803) - Odense, DENMARK - MAR 26, 2008
UPDATED: FEB 27, 2010 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.

Pale yewllow a little unclear with medium long lasting white head. Aroma dominated by citrusfruits. Lovely. Taste of wheat and sweet. good carbonation. A very smooth beer. This one is really good. I would love to taste side by side with the normal Hoegaarden. I think this one is even better.

Maria (8593) - Thisted, DENMARK - JUL 3, 2007
It’s a golden, hazy beer with a huge, white head. The aroma is nice, full and strong with alluring notes of fruit, mostly banana. The flavour is delicious, sweetish with a lot of banana and citrus, it has a good and fat body, it’s harmonic and very delightful - just what I needed - what a great wheat!!!

Hazy golden yellow colour with a bright white head. Aroma is spicy and yeasty. This is sharp and refreshing but also has enough body and depth of flavour to stand up as something special compared to a standard white beer.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUL 5, 2002
Deeper hazy yellow colour, compared to the regular Hoegaarden, stronger alcohol level i think works well with the brew, sweetish tart flavour, but generally quite dry, smooth spicy flavour, excellent to swish around the mouth.
