Bottle. White low persistant head, hazy pale golden coloured. Perfumed, citrussy, coriander aroma. A bit strong carbonation, quite neutral taste, light body, weak tartness.

bottled brugs, belgium: this is somwhat of that typical wit bier that is out there. not so much hogaarden but a bit more belgian poperinge hops here. which makes it more enjoyable. good crisp and refreshing. quite thin.

Bottle conditioned from Selfridges, London (250ml). Decent perfumy/juicy wit in the style of Abbaye des Rocs Blanche des Honnelles. Some spicyness, pleasent on the tounge. Good.

From the tap there is a difference with experiences from the bottle. I find this cloudy beer more refreshing from the tap, more citrus tones, little sweetness of the wheatmalts, and quite a dry aftertaste of the localhopps of Poperinge i presume. It’s indeed a easy going white beer, almost like a lager.

Fairly straightforward example of the style. Hint of ginger in the nose, decent flavor...middle of the road.

Hazy pale blond color. The aroma is artificial, plastic. Quite sweet, with no character, and quite metallic aftertaste. Watery.

Cloudy yellow coloured, ok head, beautiful trails of yeast floating around. Typical Belgian white aroma. Smooth flavour, not as sour as some other witbiers. OK

Sunny yellow with the typical witbier haze. Somewhat similar to the Blanche du Chambly in that it’s weighted more towards the spice side of things than the citrus. Could use a bit more yeasty flavors though. Still refreshing and good. Thanks Boutip!
