Bottle. Pours a pretty much opaque brownish yellow with a medium sized white head that falls off far too fast. Citrus, yeast, wheat on the nose. Medium bodied with an excellent wit flavor. Full of yeasty wheat and light spice. Finishes with a light tingly spiciness. Pretty tasty overall.

Bottle pours very hazy straw yellow with a huge head. Alot of yeast, spice, and banana. Medium body with a soft banana and slightly bready and yeasty body. Smooth finish. Very nice beer. Need more for the summer. Fits the style nicely.

Fantastic fruity note for a lighter belgian wit, has a citrus-spicy-coriander top over a ripe juicy pear -tropical fruit base. Medium-bodied but good-sized flourish of fruit followed by spicy finish..It’s a pretty, hazy pale old gold color. Underrated IMO.- Points for sheer style.

(Bottle at Kaisla, Helsinki, on 2009-05-06) Dirty yellow and cloudy. Medium sized and long lasting white head. Coriander and citricness in aroma. Medium bodied palate with very high carbonation. Coriander, fruitiness, citricness, some boiled vegetables, bitterness and saltiness in taste. Bitter and fruity aftertaste.

Poured with full head that settled into a thin rim. Nose of banana, clover and yeast. Apricot color with a hint of pink. Malty intro with a meringue-like creamy mouthfeel followed by ripe banana and honey with a clove-like bitterness.
