Bottle - Poured a very pale yellow amber in color with a small bright white head that quickly faded to a thin rim around the glass. Some nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is thick with orange and coriander as well as the classic Belgian yeasts. Flavor is also quite heavy with orange, coriander and Belgian yeast. Slightly sour. Slightly over carbonated. Amazingly light colored. An excellent Wit...

This is without doubt a classic. The beer that helped revive the Belgian Wheat Beer genre. The orange peel and corriander that have become almost universal among Belgian-style Heffs are still quite noticeable and remarkable and it looks, feels and smells just like a White should. If the day is hot and your in the mood to relax its still hard to choose anything better.

Hazy & bright pale yellow pour with firm white head. Spicy aroma with notes of citrus, perfume and wheat. Spicy flavor with grainy notes. Wheat, mineral and almond notes. Some bitterness in the end.

From bottle. August Dayton Beer Tasting event - Favorite Summer Brews. Pours pale yellow with a decent head. Aroma is subdued with citrus and hops. Lots going on in the taste: citrus, spice, yeast. Very refreshing.

Not remarkable, the taste isn’’t bad, but it’s not that good either. A typical citrusy witbier that is overrated imho. A bit thin, with a slightly strange chemical taste.

Nice crisp, clean, easy drinking Belgian White. Serve w/ slice of lemon or orange and enjoy.
