In Flanders, "Ezel" {donkey} is a nickname given to specific people or even entire village communities. However, as the people of this area, the word "Ezel" symbolizes not so much stupidity, but patient and dogged perseverance, a perseverance that is quite conscious of its own quality. The same applies to this ale: brewed from raw materials of the highest quality, it has a mellow taste that shows a real personality.

    poured pretty yellow for a white. average at best - the yeast, coriander and/or citrus just isn't very assertive, but there's really nothing that takes away from it either. falls just short.

    Another recent entry into the Southern Ontario beer market - and witbiers seem to be all the rage. It isn't as sweet as a German wheat beer, but has the same colour and mouthfeel.

    The beer poured a cloudy golden-orange with a thin white head. The aroma was slightly sweet, wheat malt, and citrus. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied, and medium carbonation. The flavour was slightly sour wheat, with some citrus and spice hints

    Hazy orangeish colour with small white head. Aroma is acidic and quite sour wheat along with some citrus fruits. Flavour is the same with enourmous acidicness. Still a pleasant witbier.

    Another trade-beer from my buddy Darren -- this one being a rather typical Belgian-esqe Wheat Beer. Label features a donkey and a duck, so it can't be that bad, can it...? :)

    Pours aggressively (not surprisingly), with a huge foundation of foam, and tons of Belgian-ish coriander. In fact, it's this coriander flavor profile that represents my biggest complaint about this beer. It's one thing to have a bit of a coriander/orange accent -- it's something altogether different to have a beer completly over-welmed by a spice..., yes, even something as calm and staid as coriander. Not bad, just distracting.

    But overall, this is a nice beer, that I can see being quite refreshing on a hot Summer day in Western Europe.
