3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Medium-size head that disappears quite quickly. However cabonation stays quite well. "Pilsbeer" aroma with some added hop, hints of flower. Taste is quite bitter, strong taste of hop and coriander.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Clean, almost anonmous wit beer with a robust orange peel like bitterness in the aftertaste. Refreshing.

UPDATED: JAN 21, 2011 11/1/2011 - 33cl bottle @ home (2009-12)
Note: so, I tried it again, and luckily this was a good bottle. I’ll keep my old notes below, but the rates entered are for this review.
Cloudy ocher to yellow beer, small irregular shaped head, adhesive and stable. Aroma: hop, yeast. That’s it, weird. MF: nice carbon, medium body. Taste: hops, malt, grapefruit, spices and a lemony twist. Aftertaste: hops, citrus, spices. Long lasting dryness. Not bad.
17/11/2010 - 33cl bottle @ home
Pretty clear beer, dark blond to orange. Is this a white? Creamy white head, no lacing. Aroma: yeast, caramel, some orange peel. Taste: sour. This beer is off.
Note: maybe it’s not fair to put on a review if the beer is already 6 months past exp. date. But then again it’s not fair of Struise to sell the beer if it is already 1 month past ex. date (June 2010). If I get to taste this again, I’ll update this review.
Ar: 5, Ap: 3, T: 2, P:3, O:6, Total: 1.9
3.2 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 18/20
Pours a honey gold with excellent white head that laces the glass. Light orange creamcicle aroma. Refreshing and soft with hints of orange and cream. An excellent summer beer!
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Yellow color with a white misty haze. Nice head. Aroma is a bit sour, with grassy/young flower hints. Fresh. Taste is yeasty, also little sour, like stale milk/buttermilk. This sounds worse than it tastes, but it’s not my cup of tea. But it is refreshing. Palate; medium - thin body, a bit overcarbonated and it has a medium long finish. Not really my style, but it has complexity and balance, so overall not bad.
3.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Golden yellow in colour with a thin short lived head. Surprisingly clear for a wit. Aroma is fresh and yesty with hints of citrus fruit. Taste again is fresh and refreshing with a big peach flavour. Finishes dry.
3.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
330ml Bottle: Aroma of dust, yeast, and a hint of wheat. Poured yellow/slight amber/gold in color with a small, white head that lasted throughout. Cloudy. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is slightly sweet and light to medium bitter. Tastes of wheat, hops, slight spice, slight lemon, and light yeast. Medium body. Dry texture. Average carbonation. Wheat and hop finish is slightly sweet and medium bitter.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 11/20
Toffee and almond aroma. Clear golden, medium fizzy head.Lemony tang with nutty hints. Not much of a wit at all. Drinks like an english blonde. Disappointing.
