Draft @ ZBF’12. Especially made for St Bernardus café opening in Tokyo. A Belgian wit meets a triple? Dorée brumeuse paille, col blanc épais. Arôme de levure ester et banane, léger houblon citronné. En bouche, épais au palais, note levure et encore des esters fruités de banane avec ce fini malté carapils. Bière bien pétillante sur ce profile belge, houblons nobles.

Draft @ ZBF 2012 // very hazy (milky) wheat / golden coloured / off-white head // smell is very heavy on the yeast, raw, almost going more to soapy than fruity, very heavy on the coriander, wheat // tastes like this still needs maturing, raw, unfinished, still very yeast heavy, unpolished, yeast dominates, heavy on coriander, creamed wheat, still almost soapy, touch fruity, small hint of banana // body is also dominated by the yeast // this is probably still maturing & aging, not close yet to the balance & goodness that their “Wit” is

Imported from my RateBeer account as St. Bernardus Tokyo (by St. Bernardus Brouwerij):
Aroma: 7/10, Appearance: 5/5, Taste: 7/10, Palate: 5/5, Overall: 15/20, MyTotalScore: 3.9/5
28/IV/2012 - on tap @ ZBF 2012 (Leuven) - BB: n/a (2012-411)
Very cloudy murky beige beer, big creamy cream coloured head, very stable, very adhesive. Aroma: lots of the typical St. Bernard yeast, some citrus, lemon, bit of grains, maybe wheat? MF: low carbon, medium to full body, bit creamy thick texture. Taste: bit sour, wheaty, citrus, grains. Aftertaste: more sourness, wheat again, citrus, herbal bitterness, long lasting. This is like a mixture of the St. Bernardus Tripel and the Wit.
