The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Very zippy, huge head. Starts yeasty, modest fruity, modest sourish. Finish a little bit dry, but still fresh and zippy. Quite drinkable. Not bad!

Overall one of the better wit’s I’ve had. Pours foamy/cloudy golden white, with lots of carbonation. Aroma is yeast, wheat, apples, and coriander. Crisp and clean finish.

12 oz. bottle from Keller’s IGA. Pours gold, somewhat cloudy, with a medium white head. Aroma of wheat, yeast, banana, clove, apples, citrus, mild spices. Flavor is also characterized by the wheat and yeast, with a nice balance of the fruits and spices above. Bready and bubbly mouthfeel. Clean, crisp finish. Very good Belgian wit.

happily<b/> bought it in Odense, Denmark, I love this Belgian Brewery , so lookin forward to tasting all of their products.
looks<b/>nice white head, really strong, looks like whipped craem with larger bubbles here and there. Body colour is like grain soup, opaque, cloudy, dirty water colour, adding a few drops of milk to a very watery cup of tea.
aroma<b/> is not sweet, yeast and grain, very mature, but not so strong (maybe because I am drinking it in proper temp. 2-6’C),
taste<b/> light to medium bodied, yeast,watery ice cream, medicine, lime, sour haribo candy, you can feel the belgian note of sublimity. However I am unhappy to rate it lower than had expected

On tap at Monk’s Cafe. Cloudy yellow with a white head. Spicy and yeasty aromas with some fruity tones as well. Crisp and refreshing, light to medium bodied. The flavor was a blend of bready yeast, wheat and citrus. Pretty standard for a Belgian wit.
