My favorite beer. It’s perfect for summer and relaxing. A great balance of citrus.

A- Body is an extremely hazy and pale straw yellow color. Body color a wit should have. Pours with a large fluffy white head that quickly fades to a nice collar. No lacing is left behind in the glass. Cloudiness is uniform throughout the body.
S- Nice strong smell of citrus and coriander. Sweet, bready, Belgian yeast in the background.
T- Big taste for such a light beer. Lots of citrus zest upfront with accents of coriander and some yeast in the background. Citrus fades somewhat for the finish which is all corriander,yeast, and a nice kick of hop bitterness and taste. A doughy sweetness lingers on the palate long after each sip. Great-yet classic example of a witbier taste.
P- Medium carbonation and light body. The yeast used makes the mouthfeel very smooth and creamy. Has the excellent mouthfeel of a good hefe.
O- This is a great witbier. Classic taste of a witbier with the mouthfeel of a good hefe. This is a great light session ale. I wish this style got more credit around here. Unfortunately, I spilled half of my glass and I only had a 12 oz. bottle. This is definitely something I will have again. My second offering from Ommegang. I have rare vos, three philosophers, ommegeddon, and ommegang abbey waiting in my house and I can’t wait to try these ones too!

Great, sweet head. Great, sweet-tasting beer. Became, perhaps, my favorite witbier on initial tasting. Tastes salty, lemony, citrus-tinged. Smooth. Not too carbonated. An excellent, refreshing summer drink. Near perfect!

Very refreshing. Perfect for these hot Florida evenings. Slight citrus taste but nicely muted.

Very similar to Sterkens White ale. Good, just another witbier. Jonathan Tasted.

UPDATED: FEB 26, 2008 Very good Witbier. There was great flavor and it really left a great taste in my mouth. Enjoyed the lemon taste.

I am a big fan of wittes and this is an excellent one. I could drink this all night and still want more. Very drinkable. Pours a nice cloudy yellow. Aroma of spice, coriander and and straw. Light carbonation with a mild sour flavor. Nice yeast flavor with spice and banana. One of my favorites.

12oz bottle. Pours hazy golden yellow with a thick long lasting white head. Aromas of orange lemon coriander and slight clove. Flavors of orange wheat and spices. Nice finish with lingering tang. Refreshing and great beer.
