Steendonk Brabants Witbier

Formerly brewed at Brouwerij Palm
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Steenhuffel, Belgium

Bottled. Big fan of the name, but that might be it. Unattractive cloudy yellow pour, short soapy white head. Strange, stale smell of herbs and yeast, yet no citrus, which is a bad omen. Light grass in the taste, and more acidic than it should be - vaguely harsh. Also something that reminds me of eating meat, let’s say week-old turkey, but no meaty flavor. Thin body, watery. First sip was crisper than expected. Bland, not exciting, and not fun to drink.

Tap in Brussels. This wasn’t half bad. Light and citrusy, with light coriander notes. A typical witbier, but a very drinkable one, quite refreshing. sweetish. Light and pleasant.

Bottle. Hazy yellow colour with a white head. Wheat aroma with some spicy hints. Wheat malty flavor with some cloves. Long aftertaste.

A look-a-like to Hoegarden. Mild wheatbeer (like a wheatbeer can be anything byt mild). Nothing special. But fully decent.

Not very interesting. It is wheat Belgian Wheat beer, but it was a little insipit, cloudy, and spicy but with good foam.

Bottle. Cloudy straw with small head. Lightly spicy and citrusy, quite thin flavor and body. Refreshing, easy, boring?

Yellow, thin head. Aroma from wheat, yeast, sweet dough and grapefruit. Flavor from citrus and grapefruit, wheat and some yeast. Watery finish.

Draught. Hazy yellow colour, huge creamy white head. Citric wheaty aroma. Citric, wheaty and yeasty flavour with hoppy hints. Fruity dry finish.
