Bottle. Pours a very light hazy color. Big foamy white head. Big grainy/yeasty aroma with a hint of lemon. Slightly sweet flavor. Mild flavor of a Hefe. A touch of spice and a slightly bitter finish.

A very tasty, drinkable brew even though it’s not my style at all. Aroma is funky, but the taste is crisp, fruity, and has some qualities of a belgian ale. It has a creamy aftertaste, which makes it a top player in it’s style. Some hoppy flavor would’ve improved this beer.

If you like fruit, than this is the beer for you. It is mile, crisp, and reliable. I’d rather drink this than a competitor like Blue Moon, but its still not my favorite by any means. This was one of the beers that got me into Belgium, but its not like the competition. Keep the orange slice.

This is a silky, subtle, understated refreshing little beer. It’s what people have been looking for when they drink those industrial beers-a thirst quenching, nourishing burst of relief. Pours opalescent with a hint of yellow. Clean, citrusy, green apple aroma, light on the palate with a crisp, invigorating finish. It’s a perfect sushi beer, great with all delicate foods.

delicious in all its cloudy glory. I was amazed at how refreshing this beer really is. I mowed the lawn in 100 degree heat then slammed one of these puppies down my gullet. Nice flavor, smooth body, mellow notes of citrus. Good summer drink.

Unfiltered/cloudy, pale yellow almost white. Creamy white head. Very fresh aroma from citrus and apple. A little bitter aftertaste. In spite of the appearance it was very easy drinking on a sunny summerday, and much better than I remembered it from earlier.

Great beer, slightly watery at times but with a good creamy white head on it this can be overlooked. Not sure if I’m keen on slices of fruit being placed in the glass with it, I think it can speak for itself to be honest. Great classic.

haha, just realized I had yet to rate this beauty. In Belgium I drank this and loved it. Here it is good, but just not the same. Hazy light yellow with a nice white head. I smell yeast, slight citrus and maybe vanilla?...flavor is tart and thirst quenching. Finish is carbonated and a tad dry. I do love this beer and very good mixed with Guinness too!
