Wittekerke

Brewed by Bavik-De Brabandere
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Harelbeke, Belgium

12oz can. Pours very light white/yellow that is very cloudy. One of the lightest colored beers I’ve ever seen. Aroma is hardcore lemons and some pepper. Has an almost saison aroma to it. Taste is very light and watery with some lemon citrus flavor and some standard witbier qualities underneath there somewhere. Decent but not one of the best examples of the style.

Cloudy pale yellow with a large white foamy head. Excellent lacing all the way down the glass. Aroma is faint but lemony. Taste is like faint candied lemons. Very watery body, but it produces a smooth, creamy feel on the swallow. Perhaps the lightest, easiest drinking beer I have ever tried. Almost like a watery lemonaide. Fells like I could drink about 30 of them. Maybe my new UCF tailgating beer of choice.

Unclear, pale colour, white foamy head. Aromas of citrus and/or lemon. Lacks bitterness, drinkable though. Nice smooth aftertaste turning quickly in a watery, but pleasant taste. Nice witbier.

Bottle. Tumbler. Nice yello color with small white head. Looks how a Belgian wit should. Mild citrus with a little spice. Thin and refreshing.

Yellow, slightly opaque, big white head, not a lot of aroma, some yeast, a little citrus, flavor was niether offensive nor very exciting. Refreshingly smooth, lively carbonation, some mild Belgian yeast character, not much spice. Not a great beer, but a good summer sipper that comes in cans, doesn’t cost too much, and goes great with a grilled burger, a fish fry, a clam bake, most anything, deserves a little credit for sheer utility.

Milky white/yellow white head that thins. Light sweet honey like nose. Smooth body, almost honey like light flavor. Good and great for summer. Enjoyed by suggestion at Choice City.

Bottle. Cloudy, straw colored brew with a small, quickly vanishing head. Floral aroma with lemon other fruitiness. I taste heavy banana flavors and a mild sourness. An easy drinking beer for a hot day with enough flavor to keep things interesting.

Keg (St. Urho’s, Helsinki) Very light cloudy yellow. Flowery light aroma and refreshing taste. Full of unroasted grain taste. Not as sharp as I like in a blanche.
