Bottle 75cl. Yellow hazy body with large white creamy head. A fresh yeasty nose. Fresh and carbonated body with lots of different notes - yeast and citrus. A little too lightbodied for my taste but a nice and easy beer to drink.

i’m literally on my knees in front of this beer. I’d probably fight anyone that said anything bad about it. This is the affinity i share with this amazing witbier. Nostalgic nights in the boaters (jazz on a sunday) It’s 3.50 a pint mate...no worries. Any lemon? don’t be ridiculous. A herbal sensation with a creamy sourness that basically stands up in a crowd and says im top dog. Yes, i’ve had better beers since but none of them will ever give me as much pleasure as this once did. i can only compare it to taking acid for the first time. Parsnip, grass and all the good things i like. a flavour onslaught as the carbonation dissipates. Not the prettiest of beers but my lord does it taste great. This beer is your friend and won’t let you down. I’m tempted to give it top marks just out of sheer respect.

From the bottle. Light and pale yellow colour, completely white head. Lots of yeast in aroma and some wheat. Yeast and citrus fruits in flavor. Nothing special but refreshing.

12oz bottle, abundant head that fades downto the surface in a few minutes. Medium clove aroma with coriander/orange tailing behind. A slight acidic smell. The spicy flavor quickly fades to a nice light tongue coating acidity and hop bitterness. Has body presence even though it is so light. Finishes out slightly watery and dry. Very quenching, I could just guzzle this, maybe have it on tap at home- Deserves its rep.

from the bottle. very good belgian white. overall the beer is very light and refreshing, but with enough flavor so that it feels very full, not watered-down. there is a lot of citrus flavor, but some other flavors such as vanilla are also present. great beer!
