Bière non filtrée à base de froment de blé et d'aromates qui lui confèrent son goût fruité et acidulé. C'est une bière qui subit deux fermentations hautes successives. L'utilisation du blé donne au produit une excellente tenue de mousse ainsi qu'une couleur pâle et opalescente.

[1] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/6/2008 8:43:29 AM)
"Aroma is of tons of fresh lemons and smells like Summer lemonade with strong citrus notes as well as some spice. Appearance is a cloudy, rich golden yellow and also looks like lemonade as well as Hoegarrden and has a very large head on top that is bleach white and frothy and remains and is well-carbonated. Mouthfeel is very light-bodied and extremely crisp with some citrus balance as well as malty balance with palate that is light and airy and a bit dry. Flavor is of freshly squeezed lemons as well as lime-aid with an aftertaste that is clean and light and a finish that is lemony and zesty as well as very tart. Overall, an interesting product for sure and almost tastes like alcoholic lemonade but is a bit lacking in the flavor department and is almost artificial in character; good Summertime beer.

"Best By Date September 2009; Sampled July 2008
Pours into my 25cl tulip glass with a four-finger thick, almost pure white colored head. The head leaves lots of lace and forms a rocky surface as it slowly recedes. The beer is a pale straw color with amber highlights. It shows a white haze and a pale color when held up to the light. Aromatics of orange peel are quite noticeable as I pour and inspect this beer. Up closer the orange notes gets even more piquant, almost like orange soda in intensity. The sweet citrus is so intense that I would guess there is something other than orange zest used here. A touch of grassy grain is noticeable if you intently smell the aroma for a bit, but the ϋber-citrus tends to dominate over all other aromas.
Dry tasting with a grassy grain flavor up front. Towards the finish the concentrated citrus notes kick in. It tastes like Picon has been added to this beer, and given that this is a French beer this is not too surprising. Very light bodied, quite a bit like water in its quenching character. This has a certain bitterness to it in the finish that is tied in with the more dominant & even lingering citrus flavors. To sum up, there is not much beer flavor to this beer.
This is certainly quaffable, even quenching, but it is quite simplistic for a Wit. The amp'd up, almost artificial citrus character is just a bit too dominant; and I even like a healthy dose of citrus character in my Wits.

[4] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/1/2007 2:59:54 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a light golden clear yellow color ale with some white hue and a big foamy head with less then average retention. Aroma of citrus syrup with some weak malt and some sugar is reminiscent of coolers. Taste is dominated by some weak malt with a good dose of citrus notes. A bit too sweet for my palate but still very refreshing. I’m sure this could have turned out worse then what I drank; overall it kind of reminded me of those Lindemans beers."
