3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 junon (259) - Honolulu, Hawaii, USA - FEB 7, 2008
Citrus nose. Not banana smelling like a German wheat and not similar to other Belgian Witbiers such as Hoegaarden. Appearance is interesting. Again not like a classic German or what Ive come to know as a Belgian White. Looks most strikingly like a lemonade. Lemony in both appearance and aroma. This is truly a first for me. Taste is fruity once again seems to be more of lemon lime rather than banana. This example even has a pulpy appearance. Im liking this a lot. A LOT.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 PhillyBeer2112 (2328) - Oviedo, Florida, USA - FEB 4, 2008
Interesting witbier - and while not the best tasting, it is possibly the best looking one I’ve seen. Its cloudy white (with just a tint of yellow) clearly reveals the origin of the name white beer. So cloudy its nearly opaque, and also generated a thick layer of creamy head. Aroma was heavily wheaty, with a light coriander spice nose. Flavor was also wheaty but the coriander was supplanted by a stronger orange peel in the flavor. Light and zesty but a touch too sweet to be exactly refreshing. Moderate acidity.

Pours a pale straw color with a foamy white head and some nice lacing. Aroma of nuts and light hops. Flavor of sweet citrus. A nice refreshing lighter beer.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Edmoe (226) - Orlando, Florida, USA - FEB 2, 2008
Pours a pale, opaque yellow with a white head and lacing. The light aroma is mostly citrus with some cereal and yeast. Flavor is a light and refreshing citrus and wheat. Not the best Wit but, considering the price and that it is from a can, it is good. A viable alternative to more expensive brands.
2.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 KimmoS (51) - FINLAND - FEB 1, 2008
All I can smell is the hops and they are not too strong. I like the hazy thin foam that is left on the top after a bit. Taste is juicy and a bit watery. Lemon. Flushed the nachos down pretty good =P
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 TheJester (1230) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 27, 2008
330 mL bottle. (best before: six months ago). A rather unappealing pale straw-peach colour, with lots of sediment, and just a film of head. The very mild aroma is slightly sweet: citrus and honey. The taste is quite refreshing - lemon, wheat, mild spice. Relatively dry, and well carbonated. Slightly grainy mouthfeel. Nothing fancy, but exactly what I was looking for.

can: pours with a soapy white head atop a cloudy hay coloured body. aroma is a spicey almost cardamon, wheat, yeast and just a touch of lemon. nothing to overpowering a good mix. flavour is a light yeasty sweet malt. someunderlying spice and a small lemon zest. just a hint of floralness in the finish.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 rederic (2269) - montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 22, 2008
Cloudy yellow hue, with a white head, leaving laces, yeasty, citrus fruity nose of lemon and grapefruit, with a candy lemon note, a wheaty malt, subtle coriander aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, wheaty, citrus candyish character, with a lemony lolipop flavor, a faint coriander spiciness, leading towards a fruity, subtle acidic citrusy finish.
