Commercial Description:
Blanche du Paradis is a Belgian-style Wit brewed with coriander seeds and Curaçao orange peels, the spices traditionnally found in this classic style. Unfiltered and containing almost as much raw wheat as malted barley, it presents a veil of yeast and proteins giving this style its "Blanche" name. Round and light at the same time, it exhales fresh baked bread aromas, and reveals spices and citrus flavours, accompanied by subtle notes of acidity coming from the wheat.

Bottle at Nya Tröls, Malmö
Blond color, pale, but not hazy. The aroma is too light, very light spices, glue. Dry mouthfeel (this is not unpleasant), with a light grassy and hay feeling. Too simple.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a white head. Aroma is citrusy and mild coriander spiced, light phenolic too. Smooth yeasty, wheaty and light citrusy flavoured. Citrusy and lingering spiced flavoured finish.

Bottled sample. Hazy gold in colour with moderate carbonation. Strong herbal aromas of coriander, cooking spices, lemon, orange, and a hint of banana. Fairly wheaty upfront in the mouth, before the citrus and coriander elements take over. The mouthfeel begins fairly thick, but dries out and gets savory (from the spices) rather than bitter. Overall, the spices seem a bit strong for my taste, but it’s a well made and refreshing wit.

Clear very pale yellow with a dense white head. Aroma is of typical wit components, coriander, light lemon and wheat. Mouthfeel is lively but a bit thin. Flavour is also a bit thin but still with nice notes mentioned above. A solid summer brew.

Bottled at Bishop’s Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm. Clear golden with some sediment, coarse head. Aroma of buckwheat and coriander. Mid-sweet with clean, slick mouthel and light body. Some juicy orange togther with good amounts of coriander. Low bitterness. Drinkable and tasty enough, but the clean mouthfeel prevents it from being fully refreshing and get that extra kick.

Well made Wit beer that is very drinkable. One can definitely taste the wheat in this beer. The coriander and orange peel flavour is lighter than some may prefer but I find it is balanced very well. A wit with stronger spice may be great for one or two bottles but this is the type of wit that one could drink the whole night.

Draught. Mondiale 2009 - day 3. Hazy yellow with an average white head. Light spice/coriander aroma, with balancing sweet fruit. The taste is a little less fruity, more grassy - a bit like a very mild trippel. Thick, spicy and dry mouthfeel, maybe a bit under-carbonated - slightly alcoholic in the finish - only 5%? hard to believe. I liked it - refreshing.
