Une blanche à notre manière : beaucoup de froment, une belle dose de houblons aromatiques (Citra, Simcoe et Chinook) et une touche de coriandre.

Can at home from Malt Attacks, 16th November 19. My favourite new Belgian Brewery, this is a lovely hoppy wheat beer, aromatic, apricot peach subtle bitter and smooth. Great stuff

Draft sample @ La Source Taproom.
Paille trouble, col épais et crémeux blanc.
Arôme au nez assez IPAish pour une blanche, retenant une belle dose de pin en rétro et un fruité généreux.
Palais reste sur une approche classique IPA, reprenant des éléments de blanche belge - dont pas mal de brasseries italiennes brassent de beaux exemples.
Note agrumes avec pas mal de c-hops, rondeur de bouche apportée par le froment, retrouve une petite touche de coriandre qui apporte ce léger épicé de blanche. Pamplemousse et léger pin ferment la marche. Légère et complexe, belle exécution.

Tap at the brewery opening. Good one, though the hops bitterness somewhat clashes with the wit character. Starts out as not very bitter, slowly builds up to an assertive bitterness in the finish. Hops character is not very intrusive, just as present as appropriate IMO, with a touch of zesty citrusy fruitiness, ever so slightly exotic. Easy drinking, despite presenting a moderate perceived body and moderate carbonation. Good.
