Aug 30, 2009 Pours a hazy golden yellow/ripe banana color with a 2 finger frothy white head with great retention that very slowly fades into a lasting cap, leaving solid chunks of soapy lacing throughout the glass.
Very yeasty/bready aroma with a lot of citrus fruit and peppery spiciness. Ripe banana, lemon peel and bread notes accompanied by peppery lemon zest and coriander.
Flavor is very similar to the aroma with a nice full body, especially for the style. Strong bread and yeast presence with a lot of crisp citrus notes; lemon peel and ripe banana balanced out by a peppery spiciness with lots of lemon zest, corriander and subtle hops.
This beer is extremely drinkable with no trace of alcohol and is very refreshing, especially in the warmer months. Highly recommended exmple of the style.

May 9, 2009 Tap at Brooklyn d.b.a.: Slightly hazy golden with a white film of head. Sweetish/honeyish aroma- light wheat, and only a touch of coriander. Fizzy body- yet the flavor has evident residual sugars- lots of honey character, subdued coriander with a macro-ish feel overall. Not dry or spicy enough for the style.

Jan 9, 2009 Tap at d.b.a Brooklyn. Color is completely clear straw with visible carbonation, but has a decent head. Aroma is very vegetal for a Wit and has a weird sweetness, its strange and not supposed to be in the beer. Taste is a bit better with some coriander but again that weird sweetness. Wow, another winner from Huyghe, I wish I knew before what the hell I was going to drink.
