COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Ommegang Witte, a traditional Belgian-style wheat ale with whispers of sweet orange and a touch of tart lemon. Soft and seductive, Ommegang Witte is this summer's version of spicy intrigue and refreshing flavor.

Bottle. Pours a hazy blond color with a large, frothy white head. Aromas of wheat, hay, lemon, and a touch of lime. Somewhat lively mouthfeel with a refreshingly crisp finish. Flavors of wheat, orange, and a hint of malts. My wife loves this beer although I think it is a bit toned down.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - MAR 8, 2009
Bottled. A hazy light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of fruit - especially peaches, and wit yeast, as well as light notes of soap. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of wheat - a somewhat boring Wit.

faroeviking (8598) - Kongens Lyngby, FÖROYAR, FAROE ISLANDS - FEB 23, 2009
Botella. Hazy deep golden colour with a nice white head. Aroma of wheat and yeast with some spice and mild citrus. Also slight mouldy touch. Good mouthfeel. Wheat and malty flavour with yeast, some citrus and spice. Nice, but the mouldy touch affects the overall.

yespr (20653) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - FEB 19, 2009
22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Dry, spiced and mild wheaty aroma. Mild oxidised aroma, yet with a mild coriander and light citric note to a mild wheaty base flavour. Dry and towards malty finish with a touch of spices.

On tap at Gramercy Tavern in NYC. Hell of a Belgian white. Hazy yellow/straw color with a lasting white head. Wheaty and yeasty aroma with hints of lemon. Same on the flavor - very well-rounded. Smooth palate. Very drinkable.

750ml bottle. Pours a hazy yellow color with a fluffy white head. Aroma is citrus, wheat, and yeast. Flavor is wheat, touch of light lemon/citrus, and yeasty finish. Drinkable, but winter is definitely the wrong time of the year to indulge in this for me.

biggmike (480) - Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA - JAN 27, 2009
Poured a nice yellow color with a nice fluffy white head that dissipated pretty slowly. Aroma was of citrus fruit and wheat. Flavor was pretty much the same with some spiciness definitely in there with the citrus. The mouthfeel was very pleasant and appropriate for the style. This was a very refresinging beer that I enjoyed. Simple, but good.
