fonefan (10868), VestJylland, Denmark Feb 25, 2009 Bottle 33cl. @ home. Unclear sparkling light to medium yellow orange color with a average to large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white to off-white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, light hoppy, lemon - lime, moderate yeasty, coriander. Flavor is moderate sweet, light light acidic and light bitter with a average duration. Refreshing. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft. [20081130] oh6gdx (8795), Vasa, Finland May 22, 2007 Bottled. Hazy pale yellowish orange colour with mediumsized longlasting white head. Caramel, wheat and coriander in the nose. Flavour is wheat, citrus fruit and some spices. Good witbier to drench your thirst with. MiP (8793), Sønderborg, Denmark Jan 23, 2008 Bottle, 5%. Quite spicy and teaish aroma, distinct coriander notes. Hazy yellow colour. Small stable white head. Well-flavoured, slightly sweet, good coriander notes, a little bitterness and a hint of yeast. TBone (6675), Pori, Finland Apr 26, 2007 Bottled, alc. 5.0 % (BB 09/2008)
Hazy pale orange color, creamy steady white head. Banana and coriander in the nose. Soft, light palate. Wheat, coriander and orange peel in the flavor. Nothing special, but quite refreshing summer drink type of beer. Beer to drink at terrace when temperature is reaching +35c. bierkoning (5987), La Tropica, Netherlands Jan 12, 2003 Updated: Feb 11, 2008Honeyaroma. Sweet, yeasty, sugary flavor with grapes. The yeastiness overpowers the other flavors.
A later sample, well matured, convinced a bit more. Almost clear, blonde with a touch of orange, no foam, Orange with a touch of lemon and traubenzucker. Friendly witbier. duff (5474), Surrey, Greater London, England Sep 1, 2004 Bottle. Unlike your normal witbier. Ths is a bit spicier, with a darker wheat character. I thought this was pretty tasty none-the-less. Slightly honeyed character. Nobbad. JorisPPattyn (5155), Antwerpen, Belgium Oct 3, 2008 Big bubbles to disparate white head over hazy orange beer. Faint spicy & wheaty nose. Lots of citrus, citrusproducts, perfumey. Again citrus & spices (coriander, paradise seed, peppery). But generally speaking low-profile and watery. Very heavily carbonated, spritzy, even CO² acidity, like a sof drink/pop. Hmm. Nothing wrong, but VERY lame. MoritzF (4856), Bochum, Germany Mar 16, 2009 (33cl bottle) Hazy, golden colour with a short foamy white head. Rather discreet aroma of bready and slightly wheaty malt and a light citrus-fruity touch. Sourish and bitter flavour with a late arriving sweetness, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Poor wheat-character with notes of sourish citrus and lemon, leading into a slightly tart and spicy finish. Pretty disappointing (16.III.09).
