Cloudy appearance with sediment that settles on the bottom. Taste of citrus and funky fruit. Tastes almost like tropical fruit. Cleaner palette than other similar beers I’ve had. Pretty sweet but great for a glass or two. Would buy again. dolemike1 (1129), Jeannette, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 21, 2007 Bottle from BevMo. Pours a very hazy yellow color with hints of orange. Spiced aroma of yeast and some kind of almost tropical fruit.Sweet up front. Flavor moves into a rich creamy yeasty flavor. Some grains follow it up, and it finishes with some spices and just a hint of bitterness. This is a really good effort at an "impy wit". PorterPounder (3148), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 9, 2008 The presentation is awesome!
A hazy straw colored strawberry blond body and a bountiful tall pillow of ivory head. The head retention is awesome.
My pallet says that the beer needed to warm significantly before all the flavors began to really pop. A rather yeasty, estery aroma: sweet fruity hints of red apple, banana, a bit doughy; suggestions mineral, bubblegum, buttered biscuits, orange zest, and corander. The mouthfeel is Divine… very chewy, and velvety... but it drinks like a 5% abv Wit!
A wonderful beer! Wife loved it and I dug as well. Fully enjoyed it much more once I poured it and let the beer sit in the glass for a good 30min. A lot of the phenolics blew off and the Blanche totally opened up like a nice French Pouilly Fumé.
