Cloudy gold, witbier-looking ale - there is some wheat, citrus and grass in the aroma, but the smell is mostly dominated by a strong cocktail of spices and herbs (ginger, anise, and rosemary are most prominent, but there are some notes of thyme and mint leaves) - fairly tart, nearly sour up front, followed by a soft wheaty character that lays the foundation for the spices to come to the fore - ginger, rosemary and thyme are fairly strong components, buy there is a bitter herb I can’t place, and the bay becomes noticeable near the end - some peppery character arrives late - I can see how people would be put off by this, but I love food with complex spice combinations (like indian food), and this would go really well with stuff like that.

Pour is a lemonaid lookalike with a small white head. Aroma is of super amounts of spice. What spice? All of them. I could not even begin to name them all. Flavor is a bit weaker and watery. You deffinatly get your spice but nothing like the aroma. It leaves a prickly floral on the tounge as this goes down. This will be deffinalty something you have never had before.

Bottle. Tart, refreshing, light and full of flavor — a great summer drinker. Hazy, yellow body with a fizzy white, diminishing head. The aroma is malty with some grain. Notes of lemon, clove and apple. Light hint of yeast in the form of cobwebs. In addition, you can almost smell the acidity. The flavor is moderately sweet and moderately acidic. Very light bitterness. The finish is tart and lightly sweet. Medium body and watery texture with a lot of carbonation. Delicious.

Very cloudy pale white body with a small frothy white head. Very citrusy aroma with tons of spice, especially rosemary. Citrus flavor, light lemon, more rosemary as a fairly dominant flavor, light ginger more to the background. Medium light body with moderate carbonation.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of boboski. Very hazy pale golden with a dense, white head. Tart, youghurt-like aroma. Medium body with a soft mouthfeel. Piquant, tart and lightly wheaty accents with a whiff of yeast and citrus. Vague acidity in the finish also. Interesting, less challenging but more quaffable than your normal Berliner Weisse. 270408

Bottle: Yellow pour with a large white head. Aroma is dry with grassey hops, light citrus, and a hint of grain. Flavor becomes crisp with citrus, a little biscuit, and some light hops. Nice. Thanks Jordan.

Cloudy, almost greyish-beige colour, like pear nectar. This is after a big head had frothed up and whittle slowly down in what had to be the most impressive audible show I’ve ever experienced in a beer. The aroma shows just a miniscule amount of that lactic, lemony character of the style and a lot more of footy yeastiness. Flavour is suitably tart, however the footiness doesn’t do it any favours, but the kiss of malt in the middle does. The malts then fade away to a puckering, limey finish.

Two things: 1) It looks like ass but I give a bonus point for the audio. 2) Sourness is right but not much else is.
