From bottle, Slightly cloudy pale wheat beer. Aroma of bananas and citrus some orange. Medium sized head, reduces but leaves good lacing. Sweet oranges on the palate, with spice and slight bitterness lingering. Slight yeasty taste, leaving sediment in the glass. Very nice.

Pours a pale canary colour, nice white dense head with sticky lacing. Very cloudy. Great-looking witbier, assuming that's what it is.
Smells potent. Spicy with traces of stewed fruit, cinnamon, vanilla and berry. Sweet and pleasant, could definitely be more potent. Would love that.
Taste is sweet as well, lots of cinnamon and nutmeg and brown sugar. Touch of aniseed towards the back. Not much else; nice desserty notes with sweet spice and a decent malt base but still pretty simple. Chocolatey even at times.
Smooth enough but a bit bitty at times. Otherwise a bit thin maybe.
Nice; pleasant sweet notes, has some good character.

330ml brown bottle served to me blind.
Pours a fairly hazed very pale yellow colour, with some floating sediment. Head is a fairly fine crest of very pale white that leaves good lacing. Fine vibrant streams of carbonation. Body is fairly light. Looks pretty decent.
Nose is very bright. Pronounced lemon-peel citrus with a good deal of sweetness through the centre. Slight pastry sweetness comes through as well. A little bit of spice is noticeable, but it's certainly not very strong. Nice enough though.
Very smooth, slick flavour: pronounced vanilla above the peely citrus and seedy spice character. It almost tastes like a slightly spiked vanilla soft-serve. To be honest, it gets a little cloying after a while, but there's something to be said for its power.
Feel is pretty thick, although the strong sweetness probably has something to do with that.
Overall, it's okay, but I even struggled through the bottle I shared. The sweetness is strong, and there's not enough to make it balanced and refreshing.

Bugger! Looks like I accidentally bought another Brasserie de Silly beer from the bottleshop - it's the brewers fault that they gave it a name like Titje and that there was no clear warning on the label saying it was a Silly brew... come to think of it though Titje does sound a bit silly. Balls.
Poured from a 330ml bottle into a Chimay chalice.
A: Pale cloudy straw, looks like pineapple juice, with a 0.5cm white head. There is all sorts of yeast sediment floating around in various sized clumps, to be honest I like yeast clumps but it can be off-putting to others.
S: Talk about one funky smelling Wit. No seriously this has more funk than the Grandmaster Funk P. Phunkinton laying down some funk on a five-string fretless bass. There is a big musty funk yeast aroma with the classic Wit characters: orange peel, coriander, and clove. Just cant get past that funk though dammit.
T: Tastes like a slice of banana cream pie - all banana-ry and creamy, it's good but I'm not sure if this flavour was intended or if it's been on some remarkable chemical journey. There are notes of other flavours like nutmeg, coriander and cardamom. Oh and that musty funky yeast with a light bitter finish as well.
M: Mouthfeel is creamy textured with a light carbonation.
D: Quite an intriguing Wit we have here. Personally I like a bit of funk in my beers (intended or no) and I love a good banana cream pie (or dessert pies general) so it gets a gold star from me, however I can see others drinking this with their nose all screwed up thinking "WTF is going on?" so... yeah. I like it. Kinda surprised me this time Silly.
Food match: Sorry can't stop thinking of dessert pies now, mmm... Lemon Meringue pie.
