12oz bottle. Pours a very hazy, pure orange colored body with a gigantic, snow white, soapy and dense head that slowly avalanches into a thick, lasting, soapy lacing. Aroma of wheat malts and orange/lemon. Some light spices, fresh cut grass, caramel, and yeast. Flavor is similar. A nice mixture of wheat malts, spices, bubbly yeast, citrus, banana, and soft grass. A hint of booze as well the more this warms. Finishes dry with a slightly tart, spicy malt lingering taste. Palate is medium bodied with a moderate to heavy carbonated feel. Overall, a very well balanced beer. Solid all-around. Not too simple, but not too complex. Nothing to complain about here.

Aroma is muted, with subtle hints of dough, barnyard, and yeast. The appearance is a yellowish slighty clouded color, with a tall bubbly white head, that fades to a moderate collar. The flavor is a mixture of light alcohol, yeast, and sweet-tart-bitter fruit. The beer is a soft, yet effervescent finish. The beer is a goodie, not an epic, nor a session.

Pours a super murky wheat-hazed pils color with voluminous white head. Aroma is of belgian yeast spiciness, some banana/clove, and clean wheat. Taste is very very clean and refreshing - essentially a wheat wine with Belgian yeast thrown in. The pils and wheat are clearly identifiable, as is the very expressive yeast used by Unibroue. This is a really tasty beer and one of my favorites from this brewery.

Floral hops, light bread-yeast aroma. Pours a caramel color with a brief white head. Medium sweet, lightly sour. Lively carbonation, thin body, finishes long sour apple.

Bottle marked best before 10-15-11. Pours with a large rocky head over a hazed orange body. Aroma of orange peel, Unibroue house yeast (which I associate with celery), honey, candi sugar and spice. Very fizzy mouthfeel that interferes with enjoying this beer. Taste is sweet with honey, house yeast, bread, candi sugar, alcohol and a touch of diacetyl. A bit hot (alcoholic), but I think that has to do with the beer being somewhat fresh. Too fizzy.

big ol 750. Hazy gold pour with a white fizzy head. Aroma of wheat, raisins, citrus, clove and cinnamon. Flavor was citrus, wheat bread. This bottle was pretty fresh and therefore a bit hot. Could used some more time.
