Bottle. A very hazy liiiight pale in the glass - like a really hazy BMC or something. Small white head. Smells quite grainy - corn and sour wheat. Flavor comes out a little better - light lemon notes, but still a lot of corn and graininess. Still just not a very good brew. I wonder if it’s just not very fresh. Either way, though, seems like a pretty uninteresting beer. Wouldn’t buy it again.

NobleSquirrel (2570) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUL 21, 2010
Can at Homebrew Club. Pours a very pale yellow with fluffy head. Nose is grainy, light dust. Lacking the fruit character I would expect. On taste, seem a bitt hoppy for the style with a high level of bitterness. Far from my favorite wit.

larsga (4431) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUL 18, 2010
Medium white shiny head. Hazy opaque pale yellow body. Spicy perfumy herbal aroma with papery soapy notes. Dry-sweetish mealy papery perfumy lavender taste with citric notes. Light body. Mild mouthfeel. Dryish mealy nothing aftertaste with papery notes. Light and drinkable, but perfumy and underflavoured. (0.25l bottle, de Biertempel, Brugge.)

not great, not terrible. was on a mission to find the most authentic white ale available in my area and came across this from michael jackson’s 500 beers. with the explosion of white ales and witbiers around the world, and new variations coming out every day, this one from belgium is left behind as tasting a little too average. nothing new or special about it, but still a nice beer on a hot summer day.

Botella. Hazy yellow colour with a nice white head. Pleasant fruit, wheat yeasty aroma. Good mouthfeel. Refreshing flavour of wheat and yeast with some sweetness, some citrus and banana. Nice.
