Blanche Des Neiges

Brewed by Brouwerij Huyghe
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Melle, Belgium

Bottle Blond, clear body. Frothy white head. Nose of oranges, lemon, hops, ... quite fresh, but not tremendously interesting. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet flavour. Not very complex nor bad, somewhat fruity. Medium.

Bottle. A boring, bland tasting Belgian wit with virtually no spice or anything other than thin, sweet water. It’s boring.

Hazy light blond coloured beer with almost no carbonation, some yeast particles and an average white head. Fruity herby aroma. Medium palate. Finish is light bitter, fruity and herby. Medium one.

cloudy blond with a lot of yeast particles body and a white head alittle fruity aroma a sweet taste and a little spicy finich

Tried this one at the Delirium Cafe in Brussels. Nothing to write home about, and all I did for my notes was to indicate that I had tried it. I recall it being decent and refreshing.

A not thar good white beer. Tasted at Mechel 2007 beer brothers festival. Not much taste

Fully hazy yellow with a slight greenish shine, and a small, white, dense & fine head. Another coriander onslaught, wheat discernible, and I seem to get some diacetyl too, even DMS (celery, cooked corn). Diacetyl-filled coriandersoup. Disgusting, even despite the lemony ending that cannot save it. Light bodied, slight wheat slickness. Horrible witbier; Huyghe at its... [sorry].

bottled. I don’t recall how, but I ended up with a Blanche des Neiges weizen glass. It seemed only right to pick up a bottle. I was a little disappointed. Lemon, yeast and coriander nose. Taste is a bit muted - citrus and spice with some fruit hints. Finish was short lived, but as lemony as Hoegaarden. Shame.
