3 May 2018. Tap at Brouwbar, Ghent. Shared with Anke.
Pours cloudy ochre with a lasting, small, foamy, white head; little lacing. The aroma contains ripe banana, apple, bread crust, wheat, citrus, some clove, grassy hops. It tastes light to medium fruity sweet, hints of banana & bread, and light to medium hoppy bitter, bit spicy & yeasty in the back. Dry, hoppy finish, lingering wheat & bread. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Balanced, elegant, very quenching. Good job!

One of the five first beers from this new Ghentian brewpub, a remarkable choice for a thoroughly German tradition in Belgium - I haven't seen many attempts at this style in this country. Medium thick, moussy, egg-white, opening head, not as frothy and pillowy as I am used to from this style, over a hazy, warm 'old gold' coloured beer. Aroma of overripe banana, lemon blossom, pastry dough, cloves, white pepper, apple sauce, pear, damp straw, some vague withering lettuce. Sweetish onset, lots of the expected (and intended) banana ester, ripe pear and fried pineapple notes, sourish wheatiness underneath becoming a tad soapy in the middle, but the 'fluffiness' I love in a good Weissbier is certainly there. Carbonation is medium. Breadiness increases in the finish, adorned with phenolic spice hints, lingering banana ester sweetishness and a subtle touch of floral hops. This is a textbook Hefeweizen, not a banana candy-like caricature as you often find in the Netherlands: this one has subtlety, elegance and sufficient depth. Likely the best Belgian attempt at this style I had so far, but that does not say a lot, obviously...
