Flaska från Etre Gourmete. En disig nästan mjölkig gulaprikos vätska med lågt smutsvitt skum. Doft av surdeg, kalk, citrus, jäst, vete, lagerblad. Syrlig med mycket citruskaraktär, tuggig vete, bröd, jäst, omogon banan. Ganska långt från stilen, drickbar och trevlig men kanske en lite oren svavelton i all grumlig jäst. Ok+

Troebel geel bier met stevig schuim. Smaak is licht fris met een klein beetje zuur en fruitig met iets van sinaasappel en citrus. Lekker bier, maar naar mijn mening zou een goede hefeweizen iets zoeter moeten zijn.

Cloudy orange colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have an abundance of orange citrus zest. Light sharpness comes from that. Light and refreshing.

Hefeweizen with blood orange - so much for the Reinheitsgebot - in this adorable series of 'triple' collaborations Siphon has done, now with a very classically Belgian brewery (Contreras) and a Swiss craft brewery (White Frontier), none of which I think has much experience with German Weissbier... Medium thick, mousy and quite dense but still quickly opening, yellowish egg-white, hardly lacing head on a cloudy to even milky, apricot blonde robe with champagne-coloured hue. Interesting aroma of indeed fresh blood orange, white bread, green banana, fresh sage, sourdough, piccalilly, chalk, freshly cut apples, pineapple, soap, clay and something very vaguely sulfuric faraway in the background (DMS) - too faraway to be of any disturbance, luckily. Refreshing onset, very fruity with indeed obvious blood orange, estery hints of halfripe banana, pineapple and green pear, medium fizz with minerally effects, supple bready basis, doughy with a light acidic touch from the citrus lingering over it and maintaining the refreshment; soft herbal notes in the finish, tad sage- and even very vaguely tarragon-like, with a mild bitterness that feels more citric than hoppy; bready-yeasty notes linger on. Refreshing, fruity Weissbier indeed, very modern, not lacking in complexity whilst maintaining its easily drinkable character. Too bad for that vague sulfuric background note - and style-wise, this is quite far removed from your average Hefeweizen, but an interesting beer all the same, like every single entry in this fascinating series.
