Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass at the brewpub.
The appearance was a glossy yellow almost white sort of cloudiness. Quickly dissipating cap of a head. Filmy sliding lace.
The aroma had a weak Belgian yeasty/breadiness hitting some coriander flakes and then some floral, grassy and light herbal tones.
The flavor had a weird sweetness, not sugary, not Belgian sweet yeasty, but somehow something of the sort of burnt bread? Yes, burnt bread sweetness? Is that such a thing? Slick sweet yeasty aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about light bodied. Full sessionability about it, somewhat drank like water to be honest.
Overall, I only put this in here as a witbier because the brewer said it was. Blame them if it really isn’t. But honestly, this is one weird witbier. I don’t mind when a brewer branches out on their styles, but sometimes I want to say to these guys just stick with the darker beers, that’s what they know how to pull off.
