0.33 l bottle from 'Drankgigant', best before November 2022. Hazy, golden amber with a medium large, slightly fluffy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, gently spicy, moderately fruity-floral, quite yeasty, a little soapy aroma of lemongrass, banana, bergamot, some grains and a touch of hay. Gently sweet, spicy, moderately fruity-floral taste of banana, lemongrass, bergamot, some coriander and a touch of grains, followed by a short, moderately bitter, gently spicy and quite yeasty finish. Medium body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Tasty, refreshing Wit, quite outspoken for the style.

Dark yellow colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour are particularly spicy. Lots of coriander. Sweeter elements of clove and nutmeg too. Too spicy. Too sweet.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Jumbo Culemborg.
Hazy golden with a white head. Heavy cardamom aroma with some coriander. Strangely the ingredients don't specify these spices; just water, malt, hops and yeast. Sweet taste with a spicy low bitter finish. Nice enough but a bit heavy on the spices.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, orange, bright golden colour with small to average, fluffy, diminishing, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, wheaty malty, mildly spicy and slightly zesty, citrusy fruity aroma, hints of banana, coriander, orange peel. Taste is rather dry, zesty, citrusy fruity, sweet-ish, wheaty malty and mildly spicy, hints of orange peel, a touch of banana leaves and coriander. Watery texture, slightly dry, simultaneously minimally greasy palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Hamonious and homogeneous, standard Wit composition with a focus on fruitiness/orange peel rather than spiciness/coriander, close to overcarbonation, a tad to sweet and heavy to really be called refreshing - nice.
