Starting with this naturally pure Abitibi Esker water, Mons Abbey Witte is brewed with passion and devotion to time-honored Belgian tradition from a blend of malted and unmalted wheat infused with Styrian Goldings hops, Hallertau Hersbrücker, a hint of coriander and orange peel for a discrete citrusy bouquet.

The Mons Abbey Witte won an award at the Canadian Brewing awards 2012 in the category Wheat Beer- Belgian Style White / Wit

Hazy light yellow, huge white head. Big aroma of malted wheat with subtle lemon zest, and some yeast. The finish is sweet, and tastes like a pina coloada. Lots of sweet pineapple and apple pie flavors, quite weird.

Bottle at La Foire Gourmande in Ville Marie Quebec.
Hazy golden pour, big frothy white head. Aroma of coriander, lemon, and wheat. Good carb, mouth feel is a little bloated. More lemon, and a touch of spices in the finish. Coriander being the most dominant. A little too much malted wheat, emparting a touch of butter in the finish.

Soft white head, foggy hay coloured body, strong carbonation. Aroma of skunk cabbage, lemon. Flavour is lemony, almost lambic, with witbier hints. Soft finish. Not particularily exciting, a bit of a messy design for a witbier.

Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a hazy yellow color with a decent transparency about it to allow a slight carbonation to be seen rising into a one finger white foamy head. Once the head dissipated and in fact, that head barely lasted twenty seconds, boy did that fade fast, there was some light stringy speckled lacing roaming all over the glass.
The smell had a zesty lemon, clove, banana esters combined and coming through in a sweet sort of way.
The taste took those flavors and combined nicely.
On the palate, this one sat fairly light and came across fairly sessionable. The carbonation was there and decent as a witbier and good to me.
Overall, good witbier I’d have again if I could get it.

Bottle: Poured a pale yellow with white haze color ale with a super large pure white foamy head with good retention and some great lacing. Aroma of coriander and light wheat malt with some very subtle orange peel notes. Taste is also dominated by coriander with light wheat malt notes and orange peel with a medium sweet finish. Body is about average with great carbonation. Not bad but I would have opted for a fuller body with more coriander.

Bottle: Poured a pale yellow ale with white haze and a medium size foamy head with average retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of coriander and light orange peel is quite dominant. Taste is a mix between nice coriander and orange peel notes with medium wheat malt presence and light lingering sweet notes. Body is about average full with medium carbonation. The level of spice is pretty bang on but it lacks a bit of body and better carbonation.

Purchased at a local IGA store. Be careful with this cork, as they seem to be a little loose and pop-away as soon as the cage is off (active carbonation not helping as well). Pours a hazy light golden colour with a white, bubbly-fizzy head, average retention and a little lacing. Lots of spices in the nose with citrus and mild sour notes, reminding me of a Belgian Ale and not so much, a witbier (similar to their Blonde I just had last week). Same for taste, but a little milder. The difference is in the finish with some wheat grains and hints of honey. So, a decent brew that does not shock with crazy character, but a little all over the place with their description and what style they really wanted to do here.

A hazed blonde witte with a thin creamy off white head. In aroma, a lightly citrusy coriander malt with light epsom slats. In mouth, a nice spiced wit with a smooth coriander character, a bit light, but refreshing. Bottle at Bieres et Saveurs, Sept 2 2012.
