DiarmaidBHK (2288) - Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 15, 2013
Bottle from total wine Sterling. Pours pineapple with a thin white head but with lots of carbonation which leaves a lot of lacing. more hop forward than most wits and dryer on the finish. Solid.

suurjuust (608) - ESTONIA - MAY 7, 2013
Hazy yellow, medium white head with thin retention. Spicy, fruity, wheaty, slightly sweet nose with grassy-hoppy notes and yeast. Taste begins fruity, hints at wheat, and ends with a fair amount of floral-fruity hoppy notes, some dryness, some wheat. Medium body, smooth carbonation, dry palate. Different, very drinkable.

DanielBrown (3175) - Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, ENGLAND - MAY 4, 2013
Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Brum. Smells awesome. Looks awesome also. AWE SOME. Tartly, fruitily, chalkily, stealthily, smoothly. A real mouthful. Nearly as good as LCFC sneaking into a play-off place. Nearly as good as listening to "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk 50 times in a 24-hour period. Today was a good day.

Marduk (1266) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - MAY 4, 2013
330ml bottle. Hazy orange color. Huge white head, stays for awhile. Sweet, orange, citrus, sugary aroma. Candy, grainy, faint ginger, oranges in flavor. It’s pretty unusual taste. It’s not bad, but not tasty as well. Drinkable, but I wouldn’t take another bottle. It’s something and nothing at the same time.

MrHangover (1103) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - MAY 4, 2013
Draft @ Beer Temple. Dark golden color with a small white head consisting out of big bubbles. Aroma hoppy, citrus and hints of coriander. Flavor is a bit sweet and definitely not like other wits. Nice bittersweet aftertaste and very refreshing. Careful with the high abv, this will knock your socks off.
