Belgian White

Pours hazy orange/amber with a large, quickly fading head.Nose shows doughy wheat, orange peel, coriander, heavy floral and herbal notes.Flavours are quite sweet and include massive orange peel notes.

Poured from bottle cloudy orange with one finger head. Aromas of spice citrus and grain. Taste is sweet with a nice lemon finish.

I’m getting me a t-shirt "My parents visited the States and all they brought me was this lousy beer." It looks like a wit, cloudy slightly-orange yellow with white head. Mild doughy wheat with a barely a hint of coriander and orange. Straight malt taste, how can there not be barley in this, sweet, mild orange, a hint of coriander. Malt bitterness to finishing with a lingering Tang sweetness. Not much of a wit.

Bottle. Hazy bright orange with small white creamy head, orange peel aroma, high carbonation, orange flavored sweetish taste, abrupt finish. Nice and easy to drink, could not discern the coriander though.

pours hazy light orange with a small white head and some lacing. sour yeasty aroma. flavour salt, cardboard. dry finish.

Hazy golden with a white head - Huge orange aroma - Some wheat and malt flavours with citrus and orange flavours as well - Orange and citrus goes into the finish - This was ok

Belgian style witbier from Denver, from a craft brewery which has apparently been taken over by Coors. Thin, lightly moussy, off-white head breaking open quickly but retaining around the edges, over a completely cloudy peach blonde beer with a ’fog’ of yeast in the middle. Aroma very wheaty and soapy, impressions of green apple peel, fabric softener, freshly cut sorrel, unripe mango, hint of lime, fresh fish, coriander seed, sourdough, something vaguely sulphuric (H2S?), celery, hint of dried orange peel, chalk. Fruity taste, peach, pear, apple, fairly strong and tingling carbo, dull sourish wheat, soft velvety mouthfeel (oats), sweetish touch of banana and peach, bit honeyish pairing well with the grainy wheat sourishness, fairly strong bready yeastiness but still rather refreshing, citrussy touch but more so, a drying coriander effect, though it stays relatively soft in comparison with many Belgian witbiers; not too unpleasant finish (at least for this style) of lingering ’breadiness’ with persisting wheat sourishness, with the drying, resinous coriander effect remaining relatively subtle but also a powder sugar-like, somewhat honeyish sweetness; rather thinnish body. Witbier is not my favorite style I’m afraid, but this is not a truly bad example of it, albeit a dull one, smelling too much of fish and soap, which did put me off a bit. In all, still acceptable introduction to the style I suppose, but underachieving if compared with the best Belgian witbiers - and those are not the many copies of Hoegaarden, to my personal taste. In fact, I’d even have a Hoegaarden over this; the fact that adding a slice of orange to it is even explicitly advertized on the back label, should have made me more suspicious, I guess.
