Warning! Early amateur rating! Bottle at 7.0% abv. Water tasting citrus and lemons. Hint of something medicinal. Long dry finish. Doesn’t hang together.

Hazy light yellow, quickly disappearing head. Scent of lemon, citrus, hint of orange, herbs, slightly sweet, somewhat bitter. Lemony taste, hint of orange and herbs. Bitter after-taste, fading to orange, fading to lemon.

Murky white to yellow. Aroma of citrus, orange. Sour taste, full body and well carbonated. Very refreshing.

Bottle 0,3ltr: Hazy yellow brew with an lemony taste, named after an local mythical ghosts.

Bottle 30cl. @ home.
Unclear hazy medium yellow color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, white head. Aroma is light moderate malty, lemon - lime acidic, moderate yeasty, sharp. Flavor is moderate sweet, moderate acidic and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20081117]

Courtesy of Fonefan. It’s unclear, light-golden with a weak head. The aroma is sharp, harsh with notes of citrus and yeast. The flavour is sharp and harsh too, with the same notes of citrus and yeast. I do not hope it’s supposed to be like this, it’s no pleasure.

Bottle from Bier Koning. Peach colour, slight head. Nose of oranges and coriander. Sweet, some citrus, orangepeel and wheats. Hint of bananas. Prickly mouthfeel. Crisp finish. A bit watery, slight. But enjoyable.

(Bottled) Hazy yellow (murky with yeast) with a large, big-bubbled, foamy and lacy head. Sweetish, lemon-limey and wheaty, yeasty aroma with coriander and orange-peel. Lemony-cidery flavor with wheaty maltiness and rose talc powder. Lots of yeast in the bottle, which makes the flavor aroma a bit Fantôme-like. Medium-bodied with a bit foamy, but balanced carbonation. A decent witbier with at least some character.

KBC Den Bosch, 2006. Tap. Cloudy yellow color, short head. Aroma of some wheat, coriander, some banana, somewhere in between a weizen and a belgian white. Taste is more of a belgian white, sweet, banana and citrus. Ok white beer.

Pours hazy yellow with no head. Sweet aroma, thyme and honey. Same flavours in the taste, together with coriander. Sweet and thirst-quenching; I like it. A little watery, though.
