Smell-medium strong, wheat, grass, spice. Foam- thin, large in mouth, weak hops, grass. Head is large, white in color. Sticks. Appearance- beer-specific bottle cap, simple label. Yellow, weak carbonation, slight cloudiness. From- pint Price - 80 cents for 0.33 (discounted) Taste- weak hops, weak wheat, spice, malt. Bit watery but drinkable, will probably not seek again, but on discount why not.

Bottle at home while finally "battling covid" after two years. Pale yellow color, white head. Don't get any snell but that could of course be due to my friend covid I'm carrying around. Flavor is mostly bitter, hoppy bitters. Probably don't get nuances in the flavor either. Oh well.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ van Rooij, Culemborg.
Hazy milky golden with a white head. Citrus and ginger aroma. Sweet taste with a medium bitter finish. Nice spicy witbier.

bottiglia 33 cl, schiuma bianca fine persistente, colore giallo smorto torbido, al naso subito zenzero scorza d’arancio cedrata spezie e note floreali, in bocca ancora zenzero poi coriandolo spezie agrumi e cedrata, corpo leggero, carbonazione forte, amaro leggero, secca nel finale. Al limite tra un chimicone industriale e una buona birra. Comunque non male. c. Esselunga Saronno 21.11.21

33cl bottle from Billa. Milky color with a big white head that stays forever, plenty of lacing. Funky smell of spice, flavor of wheat, coriander, spices, lavender, pink pepper. Herbal notes and lots of lemon peel leading to a relatively strong bitterness unusual for the style. Finish of spices, sourish, lemonade, dusty yet quite dry. A bit funky, very spice-oriented.

0.33l bottle. Hazy pale yellow body with a white head. Aroma and taste of lemon zest, coriander and a bit of grassy hops. Not that much more hoppy than an average wit. OK beer.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a huge head. Starts mild, malty, mild yeasty notes. Fruity touch of banana. Not too sweet. Not bad.
