Bottle. Pours a milky cloudy yellow with some floaters and a 2 finger fluffy white head. The nose is light citrus and wheat. The taste is spice, lemon zest and wheat. Soft medium mouthfeel. Nothing special, but refreshing.

Pours a hazy straw color.Light head fades to good lacing. Aroma of fresh fruit, mildly cirtusy. Light on the tongue, nice flavor, crisp, refreshing. Summery.

Poured out a nice cloudy slightly dirty light yellow with a huge bright white bubbly cap that retained about a pinky finger throughout, some messy lacing. The aroma gains strength after awhile as it comes out pretty damn weak out of the bottle. Stiff wheat and some lemon with a touch of spice. Tough to find that when I ass is spewing out the odor of a corpse. As with the taste, this one come out soft but man, it gains some serious strength for the style. Wheat, weak orange? weak lemon, coriander. Solid spice! Tangy on the tongue, near medium bodied, dries you at on the finish. Ends with wheat and weak spice (perfect). This went from being quite boring to very enjoyable. At 3.50$ a bottle, my fridge may see more this summer.

Bottle thanks to swalden. Light yellow cloudy color with a white head. Light lemon with a hint of clove on the nose. Very smooth with a well balanced flavor of lemon and malts. Clean finish that is refreshing.

0.33l can - Poured a pale straw color, small bubbles and no head. Faint, faint orange on nose. Yeasty, diluted orange juice flavor. Nothing really here. The ongoing search for a decent race track beer continues.

"Yellow hazy with a hint of lemonade in the look of the body only a small skiff of foam floated on top. Sour malts with some stink of skunk in the nose, lemon starts to appear but not to strong. I don’t like the stench of this brew. Taste is better then the aroma more wheat comes out, lemon, and mild spice. Taste is growing on me the more I drink, finishes very dry and floral. The wheat flavor is nice and smooth and this has a very sweet after taste. Brew started out close to a 2 but the more I drank the better it got, Hoegaarden is still better though."

Multilingual can tells us this is from a global powerhouse brewery. Hazy straw color with virgin white head. This does have yeast sediment in it, and it comes out clumpier than from a bottle, I think. Not an atypical wit. Light, refreshing, slightly tart and lemony. Probably not as complex in its spicing as some. Good price for an import.

Poured a cloudy pale yellow with some decent white foamy head. Aroma was lightly citrus with some wheat bits as well. Taste was smooth but unremarkable.
