Slightly hazy golden colour with a very thick white head comprised of large bubbles. Smells sweet with a bit of a belgian white aroma. Medium-bodied; Strong maple flavour with a tiny bit of malt and almost no hops. Overall, not great-not balanced at all, but some odd characteristics. I sampled this beer at Joey_Capps' on 13-September-2003 in Hamilton, Ontario.

Pour a golden colour brew with a nice big head that persisted for a long time (I hadn't had a great head like this in a long time). Light taste of spice, but there could have been a more complex mix of spice for my taste. The alcohol is well hidden. I also noticed a lot of lees at the bottom of the bottle. This is a good one from Schoune.

Pourred a small head that disapeared very quickly. Very light yellowish color. ABV is almost non-detactable with an enjoyable fruit aroma. I had some better witbier, this one really lack some punch.

Pale yellow color, generous head. Quite strong aroma, spicy, wood. Dry, bitter, lemony, light sourness. Strange…

Light caramel tan. Fizzy. Light caramel yeasty taste. Bread crust finish. Not much going on, but at least it was in good working order.

Cloudy, dull amber. Smells infected a little, but this is Schoune and they've had infection problems for years now so as far as I'm concerned any rating of their beers, infected or otherwise, is legit. Fizzy, sour. Yeast, fruitiness has survived (apricot, pear, cherry). Dryish yeasty finish. I can't believe though, that they haven't fixed their infection issues after all this time.

Belgian-style session ale, Chouinard is the same beer as Schoune Amber. A complex tartness is the signature, with peachy notes and a touch of bubblegum. A resample showed some spice as well.
