A very nice Belgian. Belgians know how to make beer, that's for sure. The Kid whizzing on the label is a classic. I heard that the story is that some little kid whizzed to put out a fire, thus saving the whole town. I wonder if they let the kid have one of these brews...hmmm? The new bottles are sans the kid whizzing....too bad. A refreshing white.

330ml. bottle in Vientiane, Laos.Pours a cloudy, golden colour with a frothy white head that lingers. Aroma of citrus, spice, malt. Taste of orange, coriander, peppery spice, banana. A decent and refreshing Witbier.

pours a super hazy mellow yellow body with a chalk white head that has moderate retention and leaves sheets of thin bubbled lacing behind as it settles to a thin patchy cap

aroma is soft sweet and floral. light tartness and a pleasant belgian yeast backer

taste is lemon forward, softly sweet and barely tart, with a bit of spiced up belgian goodness

mouthfeel is medium-light bodied with high carbonation that runs smooth with a crisp finish and a subtle, floral and sweet/tart aftertaste

overall:
it's an easy belgian affair. a sip-all-night'r. nothing complicated, yet, the lemon focus and ultimate softness makes for a high caliber session'r.

This beer is light and fairly crisp, but not a lot going on. Had it poured from tap into a tulip glass at a World of Beer. Light yellow color with good initial white head and decent lacing. Light lemon smell and taste with a hint of spice. Maybe better if fresher?

Unfiltered gold appearance with a large, white head and modest lacing. Understated aroma, with yeast, spices and tart fruit poking through. Dry, spicy, yeasty taste with flavors of lemon rind and orange peel. Medium-to-light bodied, decently carbonated mouthfeel. Peppery, mildly bitter, lingering finish.

Nice light, crisp beer. Generous lace with appealing hazy, light pale yellow color. Taste of hop and citrus accompanied with a slight spicey spike. Medium carbonation and smooth feel.

Picked up a pint can at Total Wine. Cloudy lemon color on the pour with ample head and lace. Slight aroma of fruit and coriander. Flavors of grain, yeast, fruit and floral notes. Finish is smooth and crisp. A very good Witbier.

I like the can artwork, great use of color. The pour is a hazy yellow with a fair amount of sediment. The taste is orange peel, coriander, & soft baked white bread fresh from the oven. Cheers! B

11.2 ounce bottle poured into a Duvel tulip glass. BTW, where's my missing .8 ounces?

L---Bright, golden color. Slightly hazy. Fluffy, soapy head with ok retention and good lacing.

S---Mildly sweet with grains/wheat and citrus (lemon).

T---Subtle flavors of grain, yeast, lemon & floral notes.

F---Well carbonated. Fairly light feel.

O---Seems to be a proper Belgian Wit. No complaints.
