33cl bottle, from CK. Hazy golden, huge creamy white head. Wheaty aroma with strong coriander, vanilla yeastiness, earth and complex smokey apple tartness. Sourish, wheaty and mildly coriandery flavor, some bacon, warming peppery and appley finish. Hides it’s ABV totally. Lovely smooth moutfeel with tight carbonation. Nice strong "wit" with some farmhouse cider and lambic notes in it. I really have to get more from this brewery!

On tap @ the brewery. Hazy golden body with a white head. Aroma is fruity, spicy and lemon. Flavor is quite sweet, but refreshing, malt, lemon, spices and yeast. Relatively bitter finish to be a wit. Quite straight forward but also a bit unusually wit.

(33cl bottle) Cloudy, orange-golden colour with a big and stable blonde foamy head. Slightly sweet and yeasty malty aroma with a delicate wheat-character, accompanied by lemon-zest, mandarins and a flowery, blossom-like touch. Moderately sweet and slightly acidic flavour, light to medium bodied with a crispy carbonation. Malty, moderately wheaty and citrus-fruity, slightly zesty taste with light notes of coriander; fruit-accented, slightly tart and delicately bitter finish with a touch of coriander. Quite rounded Witbeer (08.II.09).

Slightly hazy gold, thin white head. Nose is honey, a bit of nestle quick, a little bready malt, slight wood. Flavor is honey, carbonic acid, a little straw. Light tart/bretty aspects.

Rating #1200. 33 cl bottle courtesy of eaglefan538. Pour is slightly hazed yellow golden with a fluffy 2 inch white head. Falls quick with splotchy lacing. Aroma of citric wheat, lemons, lemon peel and grassy coriander. Nice nose, fresh and clean. Taste is the sharp acidic citric lemon and lemon peel. Under that is grassy, grainy wheat. A touch of honey ang ginger sweetness near the back. The ginger lingers in the aftertaste. The palate is light medium, very carbodated. Overall, nice refreshing wit. Thanks for sending it to me Brian.

33 cL bottle, not a gusher. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is classic t IJ bottled: brett-ish dry and citric with a mild spice and wheaty note. Flavour is dry wheaty with a mild citric note into the finish. Ends dry and mild spiced on the back of the tongue.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Don’t like this one from ’t IJ, but thats mine opinion, golden hazy looks and a very yeasty taste. Its more an weizenbock.
