Simply one of the very best in the world, and tops in its category. Tried on draft and from bottle. Citrus and light spice aroma with medium head mostly diminishing. Very smooth taste and excellent session beer. "Blue Moon" cannot hold a candle to this world-class brew - cheers to the Belgians once again!

Light pale golden hues, big fluffy white head. Grassy yeast aroma and some hidden citrus tones. Light body and good higher carbonation...it is what it is...

A nice whitbier, but not great. Corriander was the main flavor, some orange as well. Some bars serve it with an orange, but I pass on fruit in my beer. Out of the bottle its a little lemony, otheer citrus flavors.

(Draft) Cloudy lightly grayish yellow body with a finger or so of whitish head. Aroma of lilies, yeast, citrus and light spice with a bit of glue. Mouthfeel fairly soft and wheaty smooth, refreshing and lightly dryish. Light, weepy rings of lacing. Flavor is lightly citrusy (lemon) and light spice. Wheat malt and yeast. A bit sourish. Nice. Probably sets the standard for all mass-produced witbiers.

Citrus and spice aroma, with a somewhat pale apperance. Flavor is wheat with some spice and with hints of citrus (orange and lemon) throughout. Finish is a little flat and drinks a little thin. Overall, a great beer with a decent price tag.

Bottle, 33cl - Hazy pale yellow colored beer with a nice big head. Aroma is fresh with hints of lemon, and yeast. Flavor is again citrusy lemony with hints of wheat and coriander. Not overly impressed with this Wit, although I do enjoy this beer a lot a hot summers day.

Bottle. This is a hazy golden yellow in the glass with a densely bubbled white head (tiny, tiny bubbles). The aroma on this is pretty nice: tons of lemon and yeast with other citrus fruits, clove. The mouthfeel is really nothing special, thin and fairly watery, slightly bubbly on the tongue. I taste lots more lemon, some orange, wheat, water.
