Poured from the bottle into a round glass. I was immensely impressed. It had a deep orange color and a nice, thick head which stuck around for awhile. The aroma and taste were incredibly smooth and refreshing. The kicker, though, was the aftertaste; it was different than the first taste, and to me resembled licorice. Fantastic beer. The best I’ve had in a long time. rampmaster (318), Alden, New York, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 27, 2009 Presentation: It was poured from a 11.2oz brown bottle into a hexagonal Witbier glass.
Appearance: The body has a yellow tan color and lots of cloudy yeast making it darker than other Witbiers that I have seen. There are lots of little bits of yeast particles floating around inside as well. On top the head is thick and foamy with a creamy off white color. There is also a dusting of light brownish tan yeast on top of the head. This head has good retention and makes some nice slick lacing on the glass.
Smell: The aroma has a full nose filled with wheat, yeast, light grain and some mild hops.
Taste/Mouth: Its flavor has a good wheat malt base with clove and spice notes mixed with some citrus light, fruity/funky yeast (apple and pear notes) and mildly bitter hops. It finishes fairly dry with a touch of spicy hops over yeast notes. The palate is medium bodied with a solid texture and nice soft yet active carbonation.
Notes: This is a very tasty Witbier with a solid texture and deeply hazy appearance.

Jeg kan simpelthen ikke abstrahere fra der selvom jeg prøver. Ellers god krydret duft. Lidt tungere en mange andre wits hvilket gør den langt bedre i større mængder. Dejlig øl der skulle have haft mere hvis det ikke var for klumperne. Brandman (94), Helsinki, Finland

Hops on aroma, some spices too. Flavour tends to go towards weizen than fresh wit. Oily mouthfeel, very smooth. Very well balanced wit with good malty body. obguthr (1010), Poquoson, Virginia, USA

Opaque dirty gold-brown color. Aroma is much like Hoegaarden with some fenols and small banana. Malty taste with big body for a wit. Small bitterness. Summer drink.
