Most definitely, this first and foremost a wheat ale. You can taste the wheat from start to finish. A faint toasted note from the addition of flaked oats is present in the beer as well. This is a light bodied beer that finishes with a spicy layer in the end. The overall impression should be an easy-to-drink refreshing ale.

Draft at the brewery. A hazy light yellow beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and citrus. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of citrus, medium notes of malt, and light notes of coriander. The body is thin.

Smallish white head. Coudly pale yellow body. Dense fruity mealy raspberry aroma, harmonic and mild, though a bit meaty and strange. Dry-sweetish chalky fruity grassy taste with herbal raspberry notes. Chalky mouthfeel. Mid-bodied. Dry herbal chalky aftertaste with faint coriander notes. Boring and neutral, and not really very fresh. I’m disappointed. (0.75l bottle, HJ Hansen, Odense.)

Opaque yellow. Spicy malty aroma is heavy on the coriander. Malty taste. Very dry herbal character with a hint of honey, and abrasive spicing. Not bad wit.

Bottle 75 cl. Hazy yellow with basically no head. Aroma of oranges and cardboard. Light body, phenol and yeast with a dry and sulphurous finish. A real sloppy brew. 010509

Really pale cloudy color. Quickly descending white head. Apple aroma and banana is in there as the main thing. Spices can be smelled as well. Sharp spicy taste. Banana overtones. Not as thin as some witbiers. Kind of dry. Light hops. Pretty tasty.

750 mL bottle courtesy of jjpm74. Much obliged, John. Pours a clear golden color with a thin head. Poor head retention and lacing. Grainy aroma with notes of corn, yeast and peach. Taste is yeast, spice, citrus and stone fruits. Full bodied.
