3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sampled at a tasting. The aroma was sweet wheat with notes of orange, lemmon, yeast, and other citrus. The flavor was sweet with the yeast standing out. The finish was sweet and wheaty. I enjoyed this beer and I am normally not a fan of a Belgian white.

Very good version of a belgian witbier. Lacked a good head out of the bottle, but the aroma was still very good. Another great beer from Ommegang.

Bottle, 355ml - Hazy light yellow colored beer with a fluffy white head. The aroma is very fruity with notes of citrus and yeast. Flavor is sweet with hints of yeast, citrus and tropical fruits. Light bodied and a very typical example of a wit.

Wheaty yeast aroma, pared with the aforementioned lemon. Transparent with a foamy white head. Flavor starts out kinda metallic, with some orange flavors rounding out the end. Palate was smooth, but not much action. Disappointing.

Golden and foamy. A good looking beer and an easy drinking one as well. I didnt have much of a taste of it as my gf drank mst of it.

Cloudy gold, fluffy white head doesn’t last long, smells sharp, citric, Belgian yeast, aroma is pretty intense; big, spicy taste is not as tart as expected from the smell, but still refreshiing, pretty full body for a witte, nice tart finish, one of my favorite examples of this style. Almost bready wheat taste with lots of fresh citrus flavor

UPDATED: AUG 10, 2009 Pours a pale yellow with a frothy white head. Aroma was mostly belgian yeast with some wheat and citrus. Flavor is lemon citrus, spice, with some wheat and belgian yeast character. Palate is crisper and cleaner than I expect for the style, but still a nice summer beer.

Draft. Pours a hazy gold color with a big puffy white head. Yeast, straw, barnyard, and wheat aromas in the nose. High carbonation and a light mouthfeel. A little citrus, wheat, hay, and yeast on the palate. It finishes very cleanly. A somewhat understated beer, but very drinkable.
