Bottle. Pours quite hazy brownish yellow with a BIG bubbly head (coming over the sides of the glass) that settles as a few mm thick - still bubbly cover. Aroma is a little stingy - some lemons, ginger, coriander and cloves. Mouthfeel is a little fizzy. Flavour is mildly sour and citric with a clear yeast presence. Finish is a little spicy dry - a clear ginger presence, perhaps a little vanilla.

Slightly sour aroma - maybe citrus, definitely yeast and probably clove. Orange tinged gold color with a white head that filmed very quickly. Quite fizzy, but it does not bite. Not thin bodied, but not too substantial either. A very slight touch of sour. The flavors might include orange oil, clove, coriander, yeast and bready malt. The finish definitely calls orange oil to mind. Nice bitter to the finish. Really good stuff.

Pours to a hazy light caramel body with a foamy white head. The aroma is a light bready wheat. Light cloves and ginger. The flavor is wheat bread, light banana, light clove, and lemon zest. Perhaps a dash of Curacao oranges. The palate is carbonated and lightly tart.

Pours a slightly hazy gold with a big foamy white head. Looks very inviting. Smells os some sour and funk with good wheat characters as well. Kind of spicy as well. The taste is really refreshing with some light tartness, spices, wheat, and yeast. Good amount of citrus inthere as well. Some coriander or nutmeg give this beer a little zing to it especially in the finish. Very flavorful beer.

Lightly hazy gold. Ginormous, airy, white head. Aroma of big time citrus zest, corriander, crisp grains, and lightly funky yeast. Flavor adds light colored fruits, a small dose of floral hops, and more pronounced wheat. Medium/light body, well carbonated. Finish is dry and a little tart. Solid. One of my favorite breweries.

Cloudy golden color. This beer is characterized by a sharp spicy profile; the body is powerful enough, and the mouthfeel is dry. The aroma shows some light walnuts behind the spices, actually I like it a lot; the flavor is not complex enough, mostly the finish is flat and simple. A good one, among Belgian White Ales, but not my favorite style.
