Iron Hill Belgian White

Brewed by Iron Hill Newark
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Newark, Delaware USA

pours hazy gold with virtually no head. very incense-like aroma, like Jasmine...(maybe a little nag champa?) ...very interesting. taste is floral, lots of incense. light wheat backing, starfruit, pear, a little bitter citrus. a little thinner than most belgian whites. aftertaste is orange, tangerine, pear. pretty cool.

Poured a beautiful cloudy/unfiltered bright yellow color with a nice initial head, but only minimal lacing. Outside of lacing, the appearance of this one was good. The aroma was spicey and of orange and yeast. The flavor was rich, a very nice balance of the wheat base, coriander spicing, oranges, yeast, and even a touch of candi sugar. The mouthfeel was unfiltered hearty, very full for the style, with ample carbonation. One of my more liked beers at Iron Hill to-date and definitely a very solid example of the style.

Poured a cloudy yellow with medium head and poor lacing. Aroma was or yeast citrus and spices. Flavor had a great wheaty flavor some candy sugar yeast. great beer.

Media... Appears a hazy light gold with a fluffy white head. Plenty of streaky lacing is left around the glass. I chucked the orange slice that came with the package. Smell is of crisp wheat, orange peel, coriander, and powdery bubble gum. Taste is of the same aromas with the Belgian yeast esters working well. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, sugary sweet, and refreshing with spice.

Wilmington. Lemon yellow body with very mild haze and a pure white, cottony head. Aroma of gentle banana and floral esters, fresh ground coriander, savory briny notes like fresh crabmeat, and some citrus rind. Flavor of bread dough, lemon citrus, fresh spice, soft esters, and a hint of clove. Semi-dry finish and nice texture. A pleasant, refreshing, and clean witbier.

North Wales. Hazy pale gold pour with aroma of hopcitrus, cloves, orange zest. Flavor was citrusy and clovey up front, with some big orange zest and wheaty citrus at the back end. Very smooth and quaffable.

In the glass the beer is a bright opaque yellow with zero head on top. The aroma is that of citrus with coriander in abundance. On the palate the beer is nearly perfect with a proper amount of sweetness. I was really surprised about this beer. Very drinkable and highly enjoyable.

Very light yellow, opaque and hazy. Nose very spicy, lots of coriander and a whiff of bubblegum. More spice and some yeastiness in the taste. Excellent palate.
