3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Hazy light yellow color with a nice white head. The taste is fruity with notes of citrus and coriander.
2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottled. Quite nice (almost white) colour, white head. Spicy aroma, little sweet. Where did the flavour go to? This tastes like water. I think vittel is cheaper.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: AUG 18, 2005 Cloudy yellow colour, huge permanent white head, extremely lively. Citrus aroma. Citrus and yeasty taste. Thirst quenching, drinkable pretty good wit-bier-like blond.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
[Sampled in 2004.] Had some expectations to this one, but they fell all down, when I recogized some witnotes. But maybe not that bad as I mention it. Just in the middle of nowhere!
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Disappointing Belgian blond, short on character. At room temperature, it poured a cloudy pale lemon with a loose 1cm head. Indifferent head retention, no lace. Strong aroma of cloves, cinammon and burnt sugar with grass and faint bubblegum. Bit of soda-like spritz momentarily on the tongue with each mouthful but it faded quickly to a dull, undercarbonated brew. Thin in the body. Low on flavour. Predominant characteristics are carbon dioxide, watery lemon, wheat and pepper. As others observe, this is very Wit-like. (33cl bottle, IBS Perth, no visible bb date)
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
330ml bottle. Hazy yellow color. Gusher, but small head. Lemon, yeast, citrus, oranges in aroma. Yeast, lemon, grassy flavor. Crisp mouthfeel.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Peppery malt hop aroma. Murky yellow colour with poor head and lacing. Spicy malt hop flavour with pepper aftertaste. Flat palate.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
[Bottle from Ron] Pale gold with LOTS of yeast. Peach with a strange but pleasant citric sharpness to the nose, yeasty. Light body, dry.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Orange to golden body. White head. Aroma brings banana, yeast and a flowery feel. Flavor is citrus, some soure malt. Little thin.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from local Sake Marche. Lots of yeast in the aroma. also slightly lemony. Cloudy dull green-tinged yellow with a big puffy head and very thick lacing. Sharp yeasty and sourish initial; mid palate goes tangy with citrus; finish is a little bitter. Medium body. A bit too heavy on the yeast -- and not terribly pleasant. Like a bitter fizzy fruit soda.
