On-tap at Delirium Cafe in Brussels, served in a snifter.
A- Pours a pale golden yellow color, thin white head, spotty lacing.
S- A bit of spiciness, mild, sweet wheat aromas, soap, maybe a bit of mild funkiness.
T- The flavor is more bland, some wheat, yeast, not much else going on here really.
M- Medium to light bodied, smooth feel, lower carbonation.
O- A pretty mediocre wheat beer, there are plenty of other good beers to drink in Belgium, I would pass on this next time.

On tap at delirium taphouse
A: nice light grain ale with central opacity and borders is semi clear beer. 2 fingers crystal white falls to a quilt of the same. Spotty lacing.
S: very clean coriandered yeast smells. Paradise seed smells. Soapy and clean.
T: butter and orange peels with hints of pepper. Yeast is showcased in a nice and earthy profile. The grain is subdued yet sweet.
M: medium to light bodied for the style. Low carb. Dry finish. Not a good feel for this style IMO.
O: meh, nothing to look for. Maybe next time I'm in Brussels I will have it again if there's nothing else to drink...

Served on-tap in a 20oz glass tumbler at 12th Street Taphouse (Charlottesville, VA).
A: Pale yellow, slightly hazy, with 1-finger white head, tightly bubbled with decent retention and nice lacing down the glass.
S: Light aromas of wheat, coriander, lemon peel
T: Light flavor too but reasonably refreshing with typical wit flavors of tangy, estery wheat, coriander, and lemon/orange peel with light herbal hops. Run of the mill witbier.
M: Light-medium body without much aftertaste.
D: Decent warm weather beer but nothing much else to say.

a - extremely cloudy straw yellow color with a nice airy white head. dissipates pretty quickly but carbonation still looks quite alive.
s - belgian yeast with a slight malt profile and sour apple
t - tart flavor a la Flanders Red Ale. nice malty backbone. sadly the sourness manages to cover up most of the belgian yeast that I would have expected from a wit.
m - very crisp and highly carbonated
d - totally not what I expected but a pleasant surprise none the less. If you are into tart fruity beers then you will definitely like this one.

Pours a light gold that is not so much cloudy as it is perfectly clear but full of fluffy chunks of yeast, with a thin soda head that doesn't last. Smell is very 2-dimensional: just cloves and yeasty bread. Flavors of sweet banana bread and light fruitiness are poorly developed and poorly integrated. Others in its style are much better in every regard.

Appearance - Clear yellow brew with lots of floaters and a frothy white head.
Aroma - Sour dough bread and clove.
Mouthfeel - Light carbonation with a watery body.
Taste - clean and watery. Not much in the way of flavor.
Overall - Not impressed. The brew lacks dimension and character.
