Abv: 4.9% Type: Wheat Beer Bottle size: 330ml Country: Belgium Price:  Reviewed in: Beers of the World Issue 5
Nose : Spicy and peppery with bitter orange/mandarin and other citrus elements against a bready backdrop. A fine aroma.
Palate : Bready and softly bitter, with a perfumed spiciness and a gentle warmth. Oranges and tart lemon notes drift around.
Finish : Dry and cracker-like. Mostly bitter with a gentle, spicy warmth building and a pithy bitter orange character.
Comments : The market leader. It’s still a pleasant and well-balanced drink but it seems a touch thinner than before. The drop in ABV from 5% to 4.9% in the past year may have had some bearing on this.
Score : 7.75
