COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This Belgian Ale is what you could call a wit with an attitude. We are generous with all our ingredients - including both orange peel and coriander. This does not stop this ale from being a good companion with seafood dishes.

Recommended serving temperature 8°C/45°F.

11P 20 IBU 4,5% ABV.

500 ml fra Meny. Halmgul med hvitt luftig skum. Aroma av hvete, appelsinskall, og litt krydder. Frisk med litt bitterhet i munnen, og luftig kullsyre. Litt honningsødme. Forfriskende og sommerlig. (Hos Adrian & co, 20.04.13)

Bottle. Hazy light yellow color with a huge foamy white head. I don’t know if the bottle had been shaked but the foam kept running out of the bottle for minutes after I opened the cap. Aroma of wheat, yeast, coriander and lemon. Slightly sour taste with sweet finish.

Forsøker å notere opp øl jeg har drukket før,men gjerne en stund siden. Ok butikkøl, lettdrikkelig. Ikke blant mine favoritter, men helt ok

delnoche (402) - GERMANY - MAR 18, 2013
50cl bottle poured into a dimpled mug. Sparkling gold with a ton of white bubbly head. Turns cloudy once the yeast sediment makes it into the glass. Aroma is orange peel and spice. Flavor is very light and refreshing, orange, spice, wheat. Serious carbonation, light body. This would make an excellent session beer on a summer day. Quite tasty and very drinkable. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

UPDATED: FEB 25, 2013 Very pale colour with semi small head. Taste of wheat and grain, sweet yeast with some apple. Fresh and nice wheat. Maybe a little watery.

50 cl bottle @ home. Rated on 26.08.2009
Aroma is wheaty with citrus, some herbs and grass. Flavour is refreshing with citrus, some wheat, grapefruit and hints of apricot. A bit thin but very refreshing!

Wischylini (12) - Sandvika, NORWAY - JAN 29, 2013
Pours a fairly clear, golden colour, with a hefty white head that disappears into a thin film quite fast. It smells of cloves and fruit, and a slight hint of malt. It also smells a little like wine. Interesting taste; very sweet, and dominated by cloves, and a slightly soapy aftertaste, which is probably from the coriander. light body, thin feel, and a fairly lively carbonation. The finish is very long, yet mild. Nøgne Ø’s Wit is an interesting beer, but it doesn’t taste much like beer. I was delighted by the cloves, even if a bit overpowering, but it could do with a slightly higher bitterness. It was worth trying, but definitely not a favourite.

fantti (442) - FINLAND - JAN 13, 2013
Kaatuu lasiin vaaleankullankeltaisena ja pienellä vaahdolla. Haju on vahvan korianterinen, sitruunainen, ruohoinen, puumainen ja hieman kuivatun hedelmäinen. Maku on korianterinen, hyvin sitruunainen, maltainen, hieman hapan, kuivatun hedelmåinen, appelsiininen ja taustalla lievää kukkaisuutta ja puumaisuutta. Suutuntuma on happoinen humalan pistellessä kielellä. Kokonaisuutena raikas ja helposti juotava wit, mainio seura kesäterassille!
