There’s loads of bubbles in the head, such that I had to spend about three minutes just pouring this into my glass. I love the look of the intense bubbles in the head. The aroma is predominantly banana, with a little toast and mild grapefruit. The taste has a stronger hop profile, with grapefruit and lemon, underpinned by banana with some spiced fruit on the side of the tongue. It’s a little watery, however.

From a 330ml bottle on 17/1/2012. Pours a slightly cloudy dark yellow, with a big, thick head. Has a zesty lemony aroma, with a touch of spice. The flavour is typical for a wit - banana, bubblegum, coriander, citrus, with a bit of bread pudding. This is a pretty good wit, just slightly over carbonated.

Pours pale straw with a towering head.Nose shows doughy wheat, citrus, vegetal-like coriander and some out-of-place peppery phenols.Lots mor citrus as a flavour, almost floral. Not much of the wheat character transfers through. Very light and fruity.Carbonation is much too high in my opinion.

Tap at brewery. Hazy yellow with a small white head. Light carbonation. Oranges, lemon, coriander aroma. Modest sweetness with balancing wheaty and lemon sourness. Crackling with coriander, some clove and white pepper too. Subdued but very refreshing. Bottle. Hazy yellow, large white head. High bead. Rather sour orange and lemon aroma with pungent coriander. Taste has a little sweetness and quite a lot of lemony sourness. Has that light lemon pudding mouthfeel that make Wits very light but just substantial enough. Vibrant coriander seed note with a lot less clove and white pepper. Impressive. Considerably more assertive than it was on tap - maybe I didn’t catch it at its best there. [3.3] This one seems rather inconsistent. Had a bottle recently that was insipid, and one at the brewery with a strange menthol-like note. Averaging score.
