On Tap, @V Festival Birrasana. Blanes. 01/05/2015 Color amarillo turbio, espuma blanca, aromas frutales. Parece más una ipa que una witbier.

@BFGM, gedeeld met een Franse mafklapper die durde te beweren dat het een Frans bier was... yeah right...dude.... volgens mij werd het tijd om deze gast de tent uit te sturen,.... oogde bleek wit/gelig met witte kraag. aroma van tarwe, citrus, koriander. Smaken evenzo. en vooralsnog niet erg bijzonder.... denkt dat deze ’s zomers op een terras prima te doen is. maar valt nu wat tegen.. --- Beer merged from original tick of White IPA on 18 May 2018 at 14:41 - Score: 7

Hazy pale white golden colour, white head. Aroma of wheat, light hops, malts, coriander seeds. Malty flavour, hops, light bitter, orange peel, coriander. Finish wheat and yeast notes. Above average witbier.

’Tarwedubbel’ inspired by IPA, in fact a hybrid between the two, is claimed on the label. Hazy golden blonde under a moussy, lacing, fairly stable, egg-white head. Aroma is very ’Belgian’ (fruity esters), which in itself is far from a bad thing, but admittedly I had expected (a lot) more C-hops; I get impressions of mango, orange, lime juice and perhaps milk gone sour, some canned tomato, bell pepper, banana, tulips, mandarin liqueur, red apple peel, raspberries, raw rhubarb (acetaldehyde), freshly cut grass and, unfortunately, a faint touch of sewer water which - luckily - fades away completely after a while. Estery taste, a bit soapy, banana cream, apple, sour white grapes, candied orange, vanilla, medium and minerally carbo, smooth mouthfeel, sweetish with clear wheaty and yoghurty sourishness, bready malt backbone underneath, phenolic spiciness retronasally, drying finish more from persisting carbonation than anything else, yeasty and combining sweetness from the fruity esters with wheaty sourishness, with an emphasis on the first; hop bitterishness is there, but remains very limited and ’basic’ and not IPA-like in the least; in fact, the initial sweetness, though not cloying at all and remaining restrained, is the last impression. A lingering estery and soapy sweetishness dominates the finish. I had a few American ’white IPAs’: this is nowhere close to it. This is another Belgian ale, not the worst in its kind at all, but nowhere near the (if any) standard I’d expect from something which calls itself a ’white IPA’. This is not a hybrid between witbier and IPA: this is a witbier with slightly above average ABV and slightly above average hop dosage, something which has been in existence for a few decades and should be labelled ’tarwedubbel’, nothing more, nothing less. Bit disappointed, actually.

Yellow, clear. Quickly receding head. Strong hoppy aroma. Piney and citrusy. Fairly thick texture. Hoppy and bitter with some herbal undertones.

Bottle at home. It pours lightly hazy pale gold with a thick, foamy white head. The nose is soft, fruity, fragrant, orange, tangerine, sherbet, doughy, cracker and coriander. The taste is crisp, smooth bitterness, doughy, orange rind, lemon, herbal, grass, sherbet and a touch of alcohol with a dry finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Fruity and rather easy going. Not bad.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Beer Market Jaffa. Thanks Shmupi. Hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma of coriander, orange and some hops, somewhat stale. Sweetish and slightly souirish flavor of coriander, oranges and a bitter finish. Medium-bodied. Like a somewhat hoppy Witbier.
