Open White is a deep yellow beer with a white, fine and persistent head and good lacing. At first, the scents are dominated by the aromas of cereals which, however, are almost immediately replaced by vegetal notes of green coffee, or a freshly peeled branch.
As the temperature increases, hints of spices begin to emerge. Again, the first taste to appear is that of cereals, accompanied by subtle citrusy notes balanced by a delicate bitterness that is reminiscent of the white part of citrus fruit peels, and a touch of spices. Finally, notes of yellow fruit and a slight peppery note refresh the mouth.

Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy deep golden color with large frothy off-white head, fair lacing and sparkling appearance. Aroma of wheat, citrus, coriander and yeast. Taste starts with light sweet grainy malt, follows refrehing citric and bready with spicy mouthfeel and mild bitter finish. Medium body, slick texture and lively carbonation in palate. A bit too plain to be perfect...

75 cl bottle, hazy yellow color, lots of yeast and particles in suspension, big creamy white head, good lacing. Wit nose. Aroma is wheat with soft lemon notes and hints of spices. Medium body, average carbonation. Taste sweetish, floral finish. Quite nice witbier but not so sharp as other in the category.

Hazy golden color with a fine white head. Nice lacing. Looks good. Wheat, mild yeast and coriander aroma. Nice fresh aroma. Fine balance between sweetness and bitterness. Wheat, fruity, yeast and coriander flavor. Lovely tasty and fresh ale.
