Appearance is hazy white gold. Pure white head with very little lace but head lasts all beer long. Smells are sweet with hints of nutmeg, Tastes of sweet wheat malt (of course). Sweetly spicy with sour apple undertones. Light bodied sweet and refreshing. Very drinkable brew. A decent, if not stellar wit beer.

Aroma of aluminum that gives way to delicate hops (perhaps Saaz?) overlying sweet wheat malt. Appears pale yellow-white, appropriately hazy, with no noticeable effervescence, and a creamy white head that dissipates rapidly. Flavor is moderately sour oranges, with medium bitterness, giving way to a tangy breadiness, and ending with a noticeable spicy pepper sensation; very refreshing, very satisfying. Palate is light, moderately thin, and very bubbly. Overall, this beer was quite a suprise and it is greater than the sum of its parts. The color component of the appearance, coupled with the strong showing in the flavor department, really saw this beer through.

Pours a hazy pale yellow. Head has some staying power. Aroma of slight spiciness. Slight flavor of wheat. Most importantly, a refreshing beer.

Light golden, somewhat hazy with a white medium-sized bubbled head. Citrus aromas mostly with a slight spiciness mixed with various grains and wheat touches. Flavor was smooth and remarkable, oranges and other citrus with wheat and bread. Clean finishing.

Bottle. Nice hea. Light hazy yellow appearance. Citrus aroma. Taste is orange and light clove. Lightly carbonated, a little watery. Lacking complexity.

Great beer. Citrus flavors align well with the spice added to the beer. Didn’t mind this belgain wheat at all. I can’t say that about a lot of them.

Clean and well done beer with little depth. Very soft and citrusy palate very mild spice and a touch of wheat. Mild banana and orange peel notes with a very clean finish. Belgian lawnmower beer.

Quite good belgian wheat beer. Typical cloudy yellow color. Flavor similar to Hoegaarden, but a little bit tamer, with a bit of clove flavor to it.
