Commercial Description:
Blanche De Brooklyn, a traditional Belgian-style white beer, or biere blanche, is named after its striking pale color. Blanche de Brooklyn, formerly a seasonal product, is now available year-round. White beers are made with a traditional dose of coriander seed and Curacao orange peel added during the boil for extra snappy flavor. Brewmaster Garrett Oliver also adds his own secret selection of spices of Blanche de Brooklyn.

Tap @ Halftime, 10oz bottle pour. Body is a macro yellow color, completely lucid body with a sticky lacing. Aroma is sweet with Belgian yeastiness and present spices of coriander and Curacao but well melded with the sweetness. Taste is white-bread bland with spiky/lively herbalness. A felt yet light body with a heavy-mineral water mouthfeel. Aftertaste is faint yeasty-water.

Pours a slightly cloudy, pale golden coloured beer with a small, white head that lingers on. Aroma’s are spicy with hints of orange and coriander. Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation and a firm, crisp mouthfeel. Taste is spicy with some malts showing through, but mostly orange and coriander that dominate. Nice brew Garrett.

Had always wanted to try this, found it on draft at Grafitti Grill, which had 5 out of their 6 taps pouring Brooklyn products. Medium yellow, slight haze, decent head. Spice oriented aroma with a hint of lemon. Interesting in the mouth, not a lot of flavor at first, and then all the spice and coriander pops in, finishing abruptly and cleanly with a citric note. Solid wit.

Sweet but thin aroma, cloudy yellow body. Light spicey body with a good character. Bland ending.
