Bottle. Hazy yellow with a slim, but steady white head. Spicey and citrus aroma. Taste has citrus, banana, fresh yeast with a slightly sour then sweet finish. A thirst quenchingly decent witbier (a bit better than the normal stuff).

Bottled. Pours hazy and dark yellow with a little white head. Nose of banana yeast and spicy notes. Sweet flavour of wheat, citrus, banana and lightly spiced (corriander) with notes of yeast . Light to medium bodied. Crisp, smooth and enjoyable.

Bottle. Cloudy blonde, good head. Nice spicy aroma, good flavour and palate. Would like to try this alongside with the regular though.

Bottle. Deep cloudy gold color. Fruity, citrus, wheat malt, coriander aroma. Lots of rich, creamy, citrus fruit. Sweet, fruity, wheat malt flavor. A bit too sweet. Spicy, citrus. Full, smooth, body. They can still do something right over there.

250 ml bottle. 5.7%. From Köln, Germany. BB 29.08.08. Hazy dark brown/golden colour with small white head. Fruits, citrus, coriander and wheat in sweetish aroma. Sweet fruity flavour with banana, citrus, wheat, malt and some spices. I guess I should get a fresher one for lighter (perfect) colour.

Bottle from the Kulminator in Antwerp. Much more yeast flavor, slightly bitter and doughy with the wheat. After having a Hoegaarden right before this this felt a bit lighter and not so massive coriander based, more citrus and earthy from the yeast.

Bottle from st bock in Montreal. Nose is exactly like white grapes. Taste is light of grapes, coriander, and wheat. Good but a bit light.

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?
