Cimes Aiguille Blanche

Brewed by Brasserie des Cimes
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Aix les Bains, France

Pours a pale clearish yellow. Citric and grapy aromas. Hints of yeast. Short, yeasty dry finish. Too sour. Properly stored but seems infected. Exp. date 12-2006. Drain pour.

This is a very sweet brew. Thin and watery body. Has a lot of sugar-notes and hints of vanilla and lemon. rather citric finish. Reminds me of a radler.

Pale golden, white short head. Hard carbonation. Mild coriander aroma. Slightly sourish flavour with a little wheat and yeast. Crappy wheat beer..

Bottle: Gold with a short white head. Lemony spice nose. Sweetish citric lemon with some wheaty spice notes. Bit thin, but refreshing.

330 ml blue bottle, bought in France. Hazy pale golden colour, large to small head. Pleasant aroma of coriander and citrus. Flavour is very citrussy (lemons) with moderate coriander notes, fruity sour more than sweet. Refreshing. Sourish dry and short finish. Okay.

Bought in Avoriaz. Golder colour, white small creamy head. Lots of huge particles in the body, unfiltered. Some malt in the aroma, but also citrus, dried fruits, coriander, curacao. Bitter sweet, some sourness, but overwhelming citric flavour. A bit unbalanced. Long citric finish.

Bottle. Beautiful blue bottle. But the beer lacks in appearance. It has no head and is a bit hazy. Fresh citrus taste dominates the flavor.

Bottle, at home. Light yellow with a white head, mostly diminishing, no lacings, unfiltered. Aroma moderate malty (coriander, citrus) and yeasty. Flavor moderate sweet and acidic/sour. Light body, watery, lively carbonated.
