Vigorous pour resulted in a nice, foamy white head with a cloudy body. Fruity/bready aroma...less spicy than a Hoegaarden (the only other witbier I can remember trying in the past) but very, very smooth. Lemony, wheaty flavor is pleasant and highly drinkable...these go down a bit too quick for the price!

Bottled. Thanks to Stegosaurus for this one. Cloudy golden pour thin white head. Bready aroma with hints of spice and wheat. Flavor is a good blend of spice and wheat as well, A good dry finish. I love it !

bottle from World of Beer - Clearwater - sweet aroma, corriander and other fruits, murky fine head, pretty lemony flavor and delicious throughout - have had better on tap in the past in a restaurant in Dunnedin but still I think my favor white

Pours a very caramel color with a pure white foam. Aroma of pear was most evident to me. Good carbonation and no bite. Very refreshing...tasted like Hoegaarden’s less intense brother-in-law. An excellent beer and one I will continue to search out.

33 cl bottle, ’bbe’ Aug 07. Dark blond, fine but dense turbidity. Timid head. Nose of grain, yeast, flower meadow. Grainy taste with a good touch of caramel, even honey; very light acidity in the background. A tiny bit spicy. Some higher esters retronasally, no bitterness. Smooth, medium body - a bit sticky.

Bottle. Hazy golden color. Thin white head. Citrus aroma. Crisp flavor of lemon zest. Creamy texture. light fizz, from the bottling no less. Fun Breakfast Beer... Lots going on in this one!

Bottle - Pale golden color with small white head that diminished quickly. Aroma of citrus, citrus peel, wheat. Smooth flavorful white beer, smooth finish, not too watery though. Try this beer with desserts.
