An orange beer with sediment floating around and a small white head. The aroma is yeasty combined with notes of lemon. The flavor is sweet malty - quite boring. A one-dimensional beer.

(Bottle 33 cl) Well, I guess this is the real deal then - the wheat base beer for all the Florisgaarden fruit beers (of very diverse quality....) Very pale, almost greyish, with big floating clouds of yeast which take a loooong time to settle. Very dry and slightly tart - or perhaps rather lactic. Actually this reminds me a bit of Berliner Weisse. 260300

(Bottle 33 cl) I’ve had several honey beers before, but never with a Witbier as a base. And never before have I had a beer where the honey is this pronounced in both aroma and flavours - this is yummy indeed. Quite pale golden and extremely unclear from loads of floating impurities. Other types of sediments in here are big and lumpy and rather disgusting looking. But jeez this is delicious and very unusual - haven’t really tried anything like it. Very exotic and almost perfumy from all the sophisticated honey. Refined with a small bitter edge. But the last lumpy half inch I really couldn’t get myself to drink (or rather chew). 230100

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark caramel colour with a small, fine beige head. Slightly watery feel and the typical, sticky sweet sensation from the added saccharine clinging to your tongue. But far from the worst Belgian table beer. 261099

(Bottle 75 cl) This version from "Brasserie Duwac" in Mouscron. A beer brewed in celebration of Jacques Brel? Amber coloured with a huge but collapsing head leaving to traces. Flavour of caramel and some candi sugar. But certainly not a great beer. 310799

Bottled. Clear yellow colour, meadiumsized head. Vegetably sweet malty nose along with some grains. Vegetably, sweet maltish flavour. Wellbalanced. Good one with Indian food, but otherwise pretty boring.

(Bottle 25 cl) 4,5% ABV in my version. I have a sneaking suspicion, that this beer is off - if not it’s the most unusual witbier I’ve had to this date. No head, almost no colour but nonetheless it’s not flat at all. Paradoxically this has a flavour reminding me of single malt whisky - which also the nose indicates. Everything is wrong about this as a witbier, but it does have some weird attraction. 100699

(Bottle 33 cl) Pale, hazy, yellow beer. Very fruity and citrusy -almost perfumy. No bitterness. An excellent and very typical Witbier. 171197

(Bottle 33 cl) This is the original version from "Brasserie Duwac" in Mouscron (closed 1999). Comes in a "fake" ceramics bottle (painted glass). Pale golden with a huge and insisting head. Fresh, malty nose and very malty throughout with a very present alcohol. Strong and not very refined. 100699

Deeper golden with a small white head. Smells of almost sickeningly sweet apples. That’s the only aroma... and it’s too much. Flavor isn’t nearly as bad as I’d imagined... it’s very sweet, very appley, but it’s smooth and not overbearing. Now, I can’t say I’d revisit this beer in the near future, but it’s something I’d suggest to someone who wants something sweet.

Dark amber color; nice head. Quite nice malty aroma. It tastes really like a homebrew stuff, with too much yeast impression; there is also a lot of caramel, it’s pretty dry. At the end the alcohol burns too much the tongue; the bitterness is high.
