Jan. 2006 - Beer poured a murky yellow with no head or lacing whatsoever. Aroma was sweet and wine-like. Flavor was honey and white grapes...tasted like a white wine more than a beer. Not my cup of tea and won’t find it into my mug of beer again.

750 ml, bb 05 31 10. Slight haze on this honey golden brew with a huge head that sticks. Spicy yeast, citrus and maybe some coriander or paradise grains in the nose; smells like a Wit. Tastes like a souped-up, yet somehow smoother Wit: lots of yummy esters but excellent bittering from maybe citrus peel and Styrian? Doesn’t seem real complex, but is well-balanced and dangerously drinkable. Surprisingly hefty body (medium) is mostly smooth with some alcohol and hop tingle, and finishes almost dry. One of the better Unibroues I have sampled.

Pours a yellow honey color. Head is medium fizzy at first then turns into just a small ring around the glass .Smells of sugar, wheat, malt, vineagar, and yeast. Tastes sweet and fruity with a medium bitter finish. Mouthfeel is about medium range.

A nice Wheat style beer. Poured with a thick head. Lots of fruity flavors, bananas, clove and some nice citrus finish. Another nice beer from this brewer.

Bottled. GOlden color, start with a nice fluffy white head, but disappear fast. Aroma is sweety fruity a lot! Notes of peach, vanilla, Banana, apple, amazing... Flavor is citric, spicy and fruity, notes of lemon, grapefruit, alcohol and high carbonation, looks like a white wine, maybe witbier. Mouthfeel is spicy and dry.

Português: Cerveja dourada que começa com uma boa espuma que some rápido, seu aroma é adocicado e bastante frutado, muito bom. Notas de pêssego, banana, maçã, limão e baunilha. Sabor cítrico e picante e frutado, notas de limão, uva verde e álcool com alta carbonatação, parece muito com um vinho branco e witbier. Retrogosto ácido e seco. Não é das minhas favoritas, mas pelo que se apresenta até que foi boa.<P>

750ml. Excited cork pop and equally lively head. Gorgeous, extra-thick whipped cream foamy head. Golden color, lively bubbles, and clear beneath the foam. Smells like brandy and yeast with light must touches. Not that aromatic and rather simplistic in smell. Similar flavors too: not that complex and thinner than expected. However, the good palate finishes clean, cleaner than some other Unis. Alcohol is somewhat detectable in the finish but not in a bad way. Not my favorite UB but still fun to drink.
