Avec sa petite robe jaune légèrement trouble et sa mousse blanche crémeuse, vous retrouverez un nez fruité, citronné et orange sur cette bière blanche. En bouche, un côté céréalier, agrumes, une pointe épicée et levurée.

330ml bottle. Slightly milky, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Wheaty malty, slightly citrusy fruity and slightly spicy aroma, hints of orange peel and coriander, mustard seed overtones. Taste is slightly zesty, citrusy fruity and mildly spicy, pale and wheaty malty basis with some residual sweetness, hints of lemon, orange peel, coriander.
Watery texture, indifferent palate, medium, scattered, mildly prickly carbonation.
Quite light and watery - OK.

Bottle (originally from Ambasada) at The Garden brewery, while we were edumacating the new generation of Zagreb beer judges (and people who just want to know more), it was the sample witbier for them to rate. Slightly hazy golden body, off-white head. Citric, floral aroma, mild phenols. Creamy taste, lightly floral, mildly citric, sweetish, rather than dry, but not overly so. Light minerally-earthy touches in the finish kinda messing it up, but it's quite decent overall!
