Pours a nice blond white with a great big white head. Flavor is very yeasty and full. Kind of like drinking a cake. Good stuff either in the dead of winter or on a hot summers day.

Pours a deep dark brown color. Nice and heavy flavor of chocolate,yeasty breadyness. The flavor at the back of the throat is fruity and the the alcohol warms as it goes down. A very wonderful beer experience. A bit pricey (about $5 a bottle) but well worth it.

The aroma is sweet with strong notes of corriander and oranges - just like a witbier should be. The color is an unclear dark orange and it has a fine head. The flavor is very fresh lemony to start off before the corriander and oranges hits in the middle, just to give way for a rather hop bitter end which is very nice for a witbier. A orange dryness lingers for quite a while both on the palate and tongue. I must admit, that this is the best witbier I've ever had, and even though the style is far from my favorite, this is a beer I really like and probably will have again, when the weather gets warmer.

Hazy straw golden coloured body with a thin white head. Aroma of curacao, coriander seed and wheat. Medium-bodied; Sweet coriander flavour with orange (curacao) and wheat noticeable. Aftertaste sweetened but left mild, definately not bittered. Overall, a decent wit, sweeter more than spicey, and a good beer to try from a great brewery! I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from Chevy Chase Wine & Spirits in Washington, D.C. on 28-December-2003.

Rusty brown color, very nice lacework - mild, spicy aroma, some mustiness - tingly carbonation on the tongue - cinnamon, gingerbread, chocolate - some apple and spice, almost an apple pie-like flavor - long, spicy finish, with some nutmeg? - very nice beer, but not one that really floors you.

03 bottle. Very hazy, thick. Very little head, almost none. Deep yellow, slightly pale. Small bubbles and quite carbonated. Smells of a mildly tart hops that is fairly subtle and mixed in with a nice medium dry sugar. The body is a good medium and there is a huge champagne yeast flavor with probably the most authentic tasting wheat flavor on the finish. It is like fresh baked honey wheat bread soaked in champagne. Lightly sweet, subtle curacao flavors. Immensely well done.

Bottled (6.8%). Dark amber. The malt character is similar to other St. Bernardus - deep, soft and rich. It is clean and has a salty finish. Really good, but lacks the final touch to make it truly astonishing.
