Unclear, pale colour, white foamy head. Aromas of citrus and/or lemon. Lacks bitterness, drinkable though. Nice smooth aftertaste turning quickly in a watery, but pleasant taste. Nice witbier.

Orange amber color, creamy off-white head. Fruity sour aroma. Crisp carbonation. Citrusy, malty, dry fruity and yeasty notes. Some acidity in the aftertaste. You can drink this but nothing "speciale" happening here.

Clear gold/yellow with fine white head & good lacings. Yeasty and spicy aroma. Very spicy/harsh- bites your tongue. Overcarbonated - unpleasant spitzy/sprinkly in your mouth! Not very important or interesting triple!

Shared with Cab: Clear gold with very fast disappearing head & no lace. Strong fruity (orange/honey) & spicy aroma - very sweet. Medium sweet taste with a light metal note. Rather harsh with a dry bitter end - but def. a blond with Charisma & decent drinkability!
