It feels like I'm drinking an entirely different beer than my fellow RB raters. I'm not seeing what Joe Craigs and RobinV are mentioning. Watery brown pour. Taste is like it's famed big brother but just so much thinner. Sure I'm getting yeasty notes, toasted malts, a little spice. And sure it a light, but man, it's like the sad sequel. Can from the Unibroue summer mix case from the beer store.

Pours murky dark gold into a tulip. White head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Mango and overripe berry aromas. Thick and sharp with overripe strawberry and dirty mango peel front to back. Lasting pine and crushed pith finish. Nope.

Pours deep, clear mahogany into a tulip. Tan head with little retention recedes to hug rim. Dark molasses aromas. Medium bodied with light golden syrup and dry clove front to back. I wanted to like this more...

Pours slightly hazed bright gold into a tulip. Bright white soapy head with little retention quickly recedes leaving no lacing. Meadow and bubblegum aromas. Crisp with sweet aspirin, bandaid and banana peel front to back. Lasting earthy bubblegum finish.

Bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clear gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Clove, green apple, banana and coriander all present on the nose. Palate is similar with some lingering honey mid-palate that leans sweet. Coriander, nutmeg towards the finish with a long lingering spicy dry note that fades away. It's fun to rate some of the classic Belgian beers I never got around to rating. Solid one!

Fairly clean, golden colour with an amber hue, a big white creamy head, good retention and lots of thicker, creamier lacing streaks. A fruity nose with the apricot essence, over the spicy Witbier base. The taste has the apricots, but milder, not as sweet. This shows a bit more of the Blanche de Chambly base. Gets a little hazier as it pours. Not a bad fruity, Witbier, but not one I would have two in a row.

Can: Poured a clear yellow color ale with a medium size white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of sweet wheat malt notes with some apricot notes. Taste is also a mix of wheat malt notes with some apricot syrup notes and a semi sweet finish. Body is about average with good carbonation. OK refreshing fruit based wheat beer.

Easily my least favourite from Unibroue. Oh well. Can’t help but be patriotic!
