First thing that impresses is the generous head on pouring. Touches of banana, lemon and a little orange peel. Nice balance in the aroma. Very prominent carbo. Definitely one of the better Witbieren.

Poured from 500mL can (bb 13/07/2025). Had this many times before, especially pre-Ratebeer, but never rated it apparently so here it goes. Chill hazed blonde gold with full white head. Mild Belgian yeast with coriander, creamy body, very feint citrus. Needs more flavour, but I like the mouthfeel. Okay for a classic macro.

Идеальный, классический, бельгийский Witbier. В составе присутствует в апельсиновая цедра и кориандр.

330ml bottle. UK import. 4.9% abv. Source not noted. Last of the backlog rates to bring my "new start" on Brewver bang up to date. Used to enjoy this back when it was trendy.

Bottle 0,3ltr: Long time not drinking this one. The standard of Belgian White’s with its hazy cloudy yellow looks.

This review was imported from my RateBeer ratings.
11.2 oz. bottle
4.9% ABV
Best before end: 02/09/2025
$11.99 6-pk @ Publix
AROMA: Mildly sweet with moderate scents of coriander and orange, followed by hints of lemon. Note: As the beer warms the coriander really starts to take over, and not in a bad way.
APPEARANCE: Pours a very cloudy, light-straw (think weak lemonade) with a coarsely frothy, 3-finger, white head that dissipates somewhat slowly with moderate lacing.
TASTE: Lightly sweet with mild flavors of coriander and orange peel, which is then followed by a slight sourness and flavor of lemon. Oddly enough, as the beer warms, the sour lemon flavor changes to sweet lemon. Weird!
MOUTHFEEL: Medium-bodied with a slightly rough texture. The finish is mildly dry and the carbonation is fairly lively (i.e. above average).
OVERALL: I know this is a classic beer (and I can't believe I haven't rated it until now), but I'm not overly impressed by it. Don't get me wrong, it's a nicely crafted beer. I just find the flavor to be a bit too muted for my taste, even after letting the beer warm up a bit (which you'll want to do). Still, I could happily drink several of these in a row, and never complain. And with such a low ABV, that is easily done.
