Orange, lemon and mild spices in aroma. Thin to medium bodied. Orange, citrus, mild spices in flavor, aftertaste is mildly dry and spicy with lemon tones.

Cask, at Catherines Wheel. Light yellow with a white creamy head. Aroma moderate malty (sour), light hoppy. Flavor light sweet and sour. Light body, watery, soft carbonated. Not a success!

Half Pint, Draught. Cool, fruity citrus aromas, more distinct than other commercial witbier. The taste, however, was highly dissapointing - reminded me of drinking sherbert lemonade or smirnoff ice. It was also extremely sweet. It has the look of a faint white beer (like Hoegaarden) but less head. Looks can be deceptive...

Just released in Finland - the first Kronenbourg here with a big importer and some advertising. Hazy pale yellow, small white head. Aroma has wheat, yeast and leather. Semi-carbonated, sourish witbier. A bit fruity, not very spicey (more like sourish). Sourness and orange peel in the aftertaste. This is quite interesting mix of lambic and orangy witbier but a bit empty.

Bottled. Yellow hazy colour, mediumsized white head. Strong orange aroma, with wheaty and citric hints. The flavour is strong orange along with other fruits and a bit wheat. Easy to drink, and refreshing. So Kronenbourg is trying to break the witbier style by doing a lemonadeish version (the orange added...). Well, I still quite liked it, but be warned...

Draught at Ferdinand in Gothenburg Sweden, on the guest tap so not sure for how long they’ll have it.
Pale shady light yellow color with a white creamy head. Very strong scent that feels mostly sour. A bit watery but fresh taste. Pretty much no bitterness. Sour aftertaste.
