wow, this is a wit? its practically a hefe. big on the banana and yeasty notes. tangy, bright, effervescent. pretty impressive.

Schiuma bianca fine e cremosa. Aroma elegante, floreale, frumento e una leggera speziatura (pepe). Il corpo è leggero ma la presenza in bocca è rotonda e morbida, carbonatazione vivace ma non eccessiva. Molto secca e rinfrescante. Gusto: frumento, leggera speziatura, malto. Una discreta birra molto beverina.

Aug 2012 - cold bottle. citrusy, light, carbonation level good, little aftertaste. On the whole, a very nice wheat beer. Probably better tasting once it had warmed a bit. Not a lot in a bottle,a bit pricey, not as good as weihenstephan. Would have again, but there are better options.

Appearance: light gold, very hazy, large dense white head, retains well and laces nicely Aroma: intense banana, clove, lemon, smells superb, orange Taste: faint lemon, orange, Palate: moderate c02, medium body, leaves an orange flavor aftertaste Overall: this beers smells amazing and tastes good too, for such an intense aroma I was expecting a bit more flavor, delicious none the less ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

As recomended by 77 ships At gollem Pours fuzzy yellow , soft fading small white foam Smell is orange , but so fresh it actualy becomes intresting ! Little to much carbo ??? But a damn intense witbier taste . Way better than hoegaarden , for sure , but not a thril to me . Could be ill try to fix this for my bar as its a nice and affortable beer!

Cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma - orange, spice, dust, coriander and bubblegum. Flavor - spice, bubblegum with a mild acidity. Very pleasant witbier, very balanced.

Draft at Farmers Cabinet. Cloudy light amber pour. Tulip glass. Frothy white head that left lace then disappeared. Glossy fruity witbier. Juicy fruit. Yeasty esthers. Green banana. Straw. Pixie Sticks. Fuller and juicier than most wheat beers. One of the best of the style.

33 cl bottle.

Pours hazy golden color with a medium sized head. Aroma of citrus fruits, grass, herbal notes, some yeast and mild soapy notes. Flavor of citrus fruits, yeast, spices, some herbal notes and earth. Refreshing. Very nice.

Pours with a massive head with lots of peaks and craters which last a long time. Hazy pale yellow in color, very murky. Aroma is that of banana and spice. Taste is similar to aroma, sweet and creamy but slightly spicy at first, very smooth finish. Very good drinkability. Would definitely have this beer again.
