A delicious and surprising refreshing taste, naturally cloudy and brewed using a unique recipe of wheat, malted barley, and a subtle hint of coriander and orange peel.

[1] Review by Jne5HusG from Le Havre, France who has tried this beer many times. (12/31/2009 10:40:41 AM)
"Bottle. Poured a hazy pale straw colored ale with a good one finger white creamy foamy head that had a long retention. Active carbonation. Poor lacing. The aroma is wheat malts, yeast, aciditic fruits, citrus, lemon, orange. The flavour is wheat malts, aciditic fruits, citrus, orange and spicy, coriander and coriander! The mouthfeel is a subtil combination between the wheat malts and the aciditic fruits. This medium bodied ale has a long and nice sourish / sweety finish. The recognized standard of a Belgian Wit. A nicely standart! "

"THis is what I call a light beer, it is refeshing, light bodied but that does not mean it is light on the taste. I was suprised at the thick white head with a good deal of staying power but it has a nice orange/lemon aroma with just a tiny smell of spice. The taste is definately wheat with a hint of citrus. This is a great beer for those light meals or those meals that are already to heavy."

[4] Review by jerryoung from Kansas City, MO, USA who has tried this beer once. (9/18/2009 7:56:43 PM)
"Pours a hazy yellow with a bright white thick head. Nice lacing throughout this unique beer. Lots of carbonation and a sweet almost fruity taste and it seems to fizzle in your mouth. Very good beer, very smooth."

[5] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer many times. (9/8/2009 10:57:30 PM)
"Pint 5620...... Always pours out a stupid sized thick white cap that never disappears regardless of if it’s poured out of a bottle or out of a tap. Cloudy yellow gold brew. Smells fresh! Wheat, yeast, weak banana that changes to more of a over ripe banana when warmer but still mild in strength, some soft malts. There is an unmistakable banana taste but it remains milld throughout, light spices, a bit sour, more wheat, dry and slightly bitter that gives it a bit of punch. Quite carbonated and not as smooth as I assume it is but I still find this very refreshing. Odd plasticy feel shows up often but is not bothersome, slight biscuit in the after taste as well. Countless pints... countless."
