mcberko (124), British Columbia, Canada Oct 14, 2009 Bottle - pours a hazy yellow. Yeasty, grainy, citrusy. One of the best macro beers. fidel (886), Livermore, California, USA Oct 14, 2009 Poured hazy golden yellow, smooth, yeasty, grainy, citrus, little bannana. sound67 (157), Offenbach, Germany Oct 13, 2009 25cl brown bottle, different from the one in the picture (taller, thinner). Pours a hazy, pale yellow with a medium, creamy white head with next to no lacing. Aroma is citrus and banana, typical wheatbeer. Lightbodied, but not watery in mouth feel. Taste delivers what the aroma promised: sour citrus grapes, offset by a slight banana sweetness. Dry, wee bit sour finish and after taste. Different from the Bavarian "Hefeweizen" (which is usually much sweeter), but totally characteristic of the Dutch and Belgian "whitbier" style. Very likeable, drank this on tap in England several times. Very sessionable, refreshing. Good light beer. NCBeerBoy (12), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Oct 13, 2009 Very good at first but has a weird sour flavor that did not taste natural,.I do not like it compared to other wit beers.
Hermod (247), Vantaa, Finland Oct 13, 2009 Bottle, Alko. Hazy color, large white fluffy head. Yeast and citrus aroma, flavour similar, very easy to drink and refreshing. Elwood (665), Leesburg, Virginia, USA Oct 12, 2009 Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Slightly hazy, pale yellow with a foamy white head.
Aroma: Yeasty with slight spice notes, a good bit of citrus, and a touch of a metallic note.
Flavor: Tart citrus notes are the first to greet my tongue. They are followed by smooth malt, yeast, small floral notes, a slight buttery touch, lemon, and a slight metallic note. The standard for Wits.
Palate: Medium, smooth carbonation with a light mouthfeel and a short finish.
Overall: Fairly straightforward. This beer has a nice mouthfeel and nice clean finish. Always reliable if better brew isn’t available. Biggs88 (14), Philadelphia, USA Oct 10, 2009 This beer is my Bud/Miller
When I go out with friends, The place must have this on tap or bottle.
The pour is very nice and clean. Nice foam head.
The smell is of pure wheat and citrus. As you take in the beer, you get a slight hint of orange, lemon, lemon grass, and spice. All of these flavors are well hidden among a very clean and refreshing wheat base. Super nice drinking and very pleasing refreshment. DrSamPHD (60), Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA Oct 6, 2009 Pours a hazy yellow hue with thin, very white head. Pretty beer. Sweet aroma, some banana and yeast coming through. Interesting taste. Sweet up front with a slightly bitter finish. Some fruit and yeast coming through. Super refreshing, not bad.
