Bottle. Pours hazy yellow body with sediment and small white lacing. Aroma is spice and coriander. Taste is very smooth considering 7%.

A beautiful hazy gold color and a head that seems to climb to the top of the glass on the sides. Lemony and citrusy with a nice dryness in the end. This stuff is silky, incredibly balanced and smooth. Had it fresh on tap from the brewery – what a taste sensation!

Excellent beer allthough not a classic white. Has a softer heavier but pleasant flavor. Less grainy taste that belgina whites.

This is the best witbier I’ve ever had. The alcohol adds a lot of body which most witbiers lack. The aroma and flavor are phenomenal, very candy-like (reminds me of grape Jolly Ranchers). I’m usually afraid of the massive amounts of sediment in ’t IJ beers but I dumped everything in my glass this time and it was a very rewarding experience. Definitely worth seeking this one out.

What an awesome Belgian white. This beer was amazing. It had it all. Light yellow pour with a gorgeous haze. The aroma was full of wheat. The flavor was a heavily carbonated wheat that tickled the nose. Very good. Just overall a great witbier.

Bottle. The underdog of the night, no doubt about it. Pour has some deiment, huey yellow somewhat dark. Citrus, wheat, mild tart flavors. Incredible balance here. Nose is sharp coriander. Reminds me of Jolly Pumpkin Cala in regards to the nose. Nice alc too. Overall, Probably the best Wit I have ever tasted.

Pours a beautiful cloudy yellow with a tall strong white head. Nose is so floral, juicy orange citrus nose with a strong corriander note. Flavor is light and refreshing, crisp in the finish with a wonderful citrus and corriander flavor. Nice little hop bit keeps it slightly bitter and refreshing. Has a slight sourness and a bit of brett taste to it.

Frothy very long lasting head, and a mild nutmeg/citrus aroma accompany the smooth and light citric flavour from this great beer. A true classic.
