I love this: ever so slightly effervescent with hints of orange complementing a subtle, but lingering body of soft wheat

At the time of writing I'm a relatively young beer drinker. Lovely taste and relatively low expense make it a recommendation for those new to the game

A pleasant wit that I would like to try again.... when it was warmer. Had on a dreary, foggy day in the 4th week of September. And didn't have it with food, which is how I prefer drinking a wit and its primary test.
But this should be said, it passes the secondary test: A nice Belgian yeast clearly is at work here; giving both aromas and tastes we associate with the style. I found it a bit thin; but that is excusable if it makes the food taste better (back to the primary test.)

A mild belgian all the way, a bit sour, pear/apple/corriander...not quite clear in appearance. The beer was poured from a can into a pint glass.
