Can. Cloudy pink with a cm of white head. Good raspberry aroma with fresh hairy berries, some leaves, twangy wheat behind. So it tastes - the berries are nice but don't quite overmatch the Wit and the wheat and spices are complemented by the slight tartness as well as sweetness from the berries. Refreshing and very well balanced.

Can. Very dark brown with a loose beige head. Mild roasty aroma with cola, raisins. Perhaps a little more roasted presence upon a taste with weak syrupy chocolate, only hints of dried fruit. But enough bitterness to tidy up. Can't say this reminded me of panettone at all but it's OK.

A smooth-drinking dubbel with aromas of raisins, bread and plenty of chai spice. It has a creamy mouthfeel with some late banana, and hops that cut through nicely.

14/10/2022. Can from Cellarbrations. Pours clear dark golden with a frothy white head. Aroma is sweet, tropical, piney, malt, biscuit. Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, fairly fizzy but suited it. Quite enjoyable.

Can. Moderately hazy light amber with a 2cm white head. Aroma of tropical fruit and a weird rancid nut oil? aroma, grass clippings. I dunno, could be just a me thing. Problem doesn't flow through to the taste where the tropical fruit is joined by peach rather than citrus. Dryish finish with low but sufficient bitterness.

Pleasant aroma of pear, grapefruit, biscuit and vanilla.loses a bit of that subtlety in the mouth, where I'm getting a little peppermints as well.

Can. Amber with an off white head that settles to a fat coat. Unconvincing aroma of vague fruit and plain caramel, some singed coffee. There's a bit more of a theme upon a taste - stewed fruit set off by caramel, an oaky whisky finish that's slightly drying. The finish does save it from being just strong with various things.

Can. Clear gold with an inch of white head that fades quickly to a cm. Aroma of light spiced dough, dusty orange and lemon, cloves. Undercarbonated for the style. Quite heavy and a little grainy with banana and spices more than a fruit-tinged punch. A bit of a tangle.

Can. Pretty much clear golden amber with a dense cm or so of white head. Looks classy. Gentle fruity aroma with pear and vague citrus, light biscuit. Moderately sweet and quite biscuity - making the Palm Spéciale glass I'm drinking it from seem like the right choice - with fruit a bit obscured before a quite spicy bitter finish.

The can even features an ersatz Parental Advisory sticker to give you the full 80s rap disapproved of by Tipper Gore vibe so beloved of the kids these days. Hazy yellowish orange with a white head that fades pretty quickly. Aroma of wheaty crackers, mixed citrus not limited to mandarins, more herbal than spice notes. Higher bitterness means it lacks the softness of a normal Wit but it's an OK trade because the hop blend complements the more traditional elements at the finish. Refreshing.
