Limburg Witbier is a refreshing and quenching citrus spiced ale. It has a cleansing, fruity tartness, with a touch of ‘pepper and spice’. Full of flavour yet not heavy on the palate. An ideal pre-dinner beer or on its own as a refresher.

[1] Review by OrvalPlease from Orland Park, IL, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (6/1/2008 10:44:29 AM)
"Darker amber coloring for a witbier, thick full head. Aromas of malt and yeasts prevail with a persistent citrus note. Mouthfeel is heavy and a bit chalky, but not a detraction. Malt again dominates the palate with slight bittering towards the finish. A heavier version of the style overall, but a nice change of pace. Would definitely try again."

[2] Review by EyeChartBrew from CA, Liechtenstein who has tried this beer once. (7/17/2005 2:42:00 PM)
"A peculiar looking bottle, that I picked up from the dark and hidden recesses of a gloomy looking liquor store in Ocean Beach. The only Limburg I had ever seen before this was the rather nasty Dutch beer of the same name that I had in Virginia Beach. After being burned on other Kiwi beers recently (Tui "IPA" and the Monteith's line of beers), and considering this beer's questionable age, I didn't have much optimisism about liking this, to be honest.
But actually, this wasn't too terrible. Not as white and fluffy as I would expect from a Witbier -- comes across as more of an American Wheat beer than wit-like. Aroma is also a bit too nuetral IMO. Only hints of any sort of complexity in the flavor dept. Aged sample?
But for an afterwork quaffing beer, this didn't disappoint. Drinkable enough, surely. Nothing that I would seek out again, but nothing that I would turn my nose at, either.
