Taste 7/8. Looks: cloudy golden body with a very thick white head. Aroma: Candy sugar, wheat, bananas, citrus. Taste: Light bodied version of the aroma. Nice carbonation, lively taste. Easy to drink. Nice occasional.

bottle. Hazy yellow pour with a thin fizzy head that clears away quickly but does leave a nice rim. Aromas of some earthy sticky sweet grains, some fruity notes. Flavors of sharp yeast, sweet wheat grains, some chunky sweet muffin notes, and some hints of citrus fruits. Pretty smooth and even on the palate, with a bit of a sticky oily finish. A decent brew, but one of the less impressive offerings from St.Bernardus.

11.2 oz bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville. Best by 1/28/10. A very hazy orange-brown pour with a huge head that quickly disappears. Earthy, complex aroma with stone fruit, cinnamon and spice notes. Taste is wheat, yeast, caramel, bread, spice. Full bodied.

Pours hazy straw color with white head. Aromas of wheat, clove, corriander and citrus. Flavors of wheat and corriander with a hint of citrus. Nice and refreshing. Medium body with minimal carbonation and a smooth mouthfeel. A well done witbier.
