33cl bottle picked up from the grocery store. Pours a murky light orange with visible carbonation and not much head. Smells of citrus hops and bitter hops. The taste is quite bitter and has a weird vinegar sourness. Could be an infected bottle.

Picked this up at a grocery store here in Netherlands as a part of a sampler pack of Dutch beer. Label was a bit different than pictured. Am not a huge fan of the style, but I would call this a "middle of the road" beer. Very little head, no lacing, cloudy straw color with a hoppy, citrus taste. Not one I would seek out, but not awful either.

330ml bottle from Albert Heijn supermarket, Amsterdam (€1.89):
This one struck me as being a pretty average witbier if I'm honest, it was in no way a bad offering but it didn't really excite me either and I'm not sure it's one that I'd be likely to pick up again in truth. The nose was quite light and overall so was the beer with a nice zesty, citrus taste that was refreshing and easy to drink but it wasn't a stand out witbier by any means; enjoyable but not a must try I'm afraid.

Rosey blonde with dead head.
Faint grain and flowers on the nose.
Snap wheat crackers, tart yeasty bite, some lemon and rose petal, and spicy hop ending.
Leafy herbal finish and ringing linger.
Crisp, light, some cling.
A very mild wit. Easy on the lemon and coriander, big on a sourness that's almost wild. (Website describes it as a German wheat, but there's not banana, either.) Ultimately refreshing, but a different take that's not quite to style.
