Commercial Description:
This traditional witbier has been developed under supervision of the father of Hoegaarden and Celis White, master brewer Pierre Celis. This beer has been bottle-refermented, which lent it its specific taste.

Hazy yellow with thin foam head. Fresh citrus aroma. Flavour is quite yeasty at first. Some spice then comes through but it’s not long before the dominance of the yeast returns.

Appearance: very solid, textbook; very big fluffy white head retention; yellow straw color; very cloudy, like thick fog; Aroma: somewhat bland and unexciting; slight honey vanilla; not much of a spice presence; a little bit of fruity and floral, but not much Flavor: has a honey, vanilla backbone with mild lactic acid; not much spice and not much fruit Mouthfeel: similar impression as above; unexciting; mediocre; nothing special at all; far from it I’m wondering if this is either too old or a bad batch.

Cracked Kettle. Hazy yellow body with bursting head. Nice nose of fruits. The taste is sweet with notes of different fruits, including banana, citrus and orange. A great beer.

Bottle. Pours a hazy yellow with a big white head. Aroma of spices, citrus and yeast. Taste is semi sweet of citrus, corriander and bananas. Medium body with a semi sweet finish.

Picked this up on a recommendation from CaryTheDude. This is a bad ass white. Nice aroma of coriander, oranges, spices and wheat. Absolutely destroys Hoegaarden.

Pours golden with huge long lasting nicely lacing white head. Aroma of orange and spices, a nice lingering bitterness with a rather dry finish. A nice witbier.

This hazy yellow beer poured with a well-laced white head that lasted a while. There is a floral citrus aroma and a spiced wheat taste that is typical of, but better than, most of the top Belgian witbiers. This is easy to drink.
