Wittekerke Wit is easy to recognize by the elegant glass it is served in, its sunny colour and creamy foam head. The taste is nicely rounded with a well-defined herbal bitterness. The late famous beer expert Michael Jackson described Wittekerke Wit as creamy, aromatic, with a clean, teasing, perfumed fruitiness and a faintly herbal tartness.

Bottle. Strong clove/banana aroma especially for a witbier. Pale yellow color - cloudy with moderate head. Moderate malt flavor - little fruit or spice flavor - bland and on the watery side. A very light witbier.

Typical witbier outlook: hazy yellow-orange color, creamy small white head. Wheaty aroma with lemon and coriander plus hints of skunked hops just after opening the can. Interesting range of spices: coriander, clove mixed with lemony dish water and sugar. Interesting witbier, but do I like it? Not so much.

Very hazy blonde with a thick creamy head, which collapses quickly. Pleasant lemon and yeast aroma. Lemony and spicey (fresh ginger) in tatste, dry but not tart. Some bubble gum in the end. Not original, or interesting, but hits the spot.

This was the first wit I really fell back when I was really into wits. That phase has passed now. +++ Sampled from an 11.2 oz can this brew pours a pale yellow color with a medium sized white head that left decent lacing. Very cloudy with lots of sediment. A light scent that is sweet and spicy with some citrus definitely coming through. Light lemon flavor. Very mild wheat taste. Just a hint of spice. Medium length finish. A nice and refreshing wit

The aroma is dominated by citrus. The color is an unclear yellow and it has a fine head. The flavor is complex with notes of citrus, malt, corriander, youghurt and yeast. I don't like the youghurt sourness in a beer.
