Blanche Watou's Witbier
(has 1 batch)

Bottle at Cafe buitenlust, Oirschot. Decent Belgian white beer, but nothing really outstanding. Yellow color, fresh smell and taste, ok carbo and body.

250 ml bottle, from Selfridge’s food store, London. ABV is 5%. Hazy straw coloured beer, huge white head. Typical witbier aroma of wheat, citrus and coriander. The flavour is also wheaty and very refreshing, but the citrus and coriander elements are quite moderate. Low bitterness.

[3/6/11] Draught at ZBF 2011. Cloudy yellow with a white head. Aroma of fruit esters, some spiciness (clove, some coriander) and wheat. Sweetish grainy fruity flavor with light spiciness, continues to a slightly drier finish. Light-bodied.

Beer from a store in Ypres. This actually survived a fall from more than a meter and over 4 more stairs, a +1 for that definitely :D. Opaque yellow body, thick white head that went away at a medium pace. Dry grainy nose, some lime. Fine lactic taste, lime again, soft. Close to a Hoegaarden really which is a definite plus from me. Slighty candyish but still kinda refreshing. Not a bad wit!

(bottle, 25cl) Hazy, yellow colour with a blond mid-sized foamy head. Yeasty and slightly mouldy wheat-malty aroma with a tinge of citrus and metal. Mildly sweet and sour flavour, light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Wheaty and slightly citrus-fruity taste with a touch of coriander spice; dry and slim, slightly citric finish. 09.I.11

Pale yellow beer, pretty cloudy, almost no head, just a little rim of little bubbles. Aroma of lactic acid, citrus and some coriander. Round texture, sparkling MF at first but turns flat pretty fast. Taste of yeast, lemon and bread. Some spices too. Aftertaste is citrus with yeast again.

Pours a very cloudy ochre to pale beige beer. Creamy solid white head, pretty stable and adhesive. Aroma: citrus peel, spices, yeast, ripe fruits. MF: nice carbon, light body, little watery texture. Taste: citrus, spices, coriander. Aftertaste: citrus, some malts, little metallic. Ok, but nothing exciting.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Hazy golden body with a white head that fades. Aroma of honey, biscuit, perfume, flowers, urine, canned pineapple. Taste is baked bread, some oxidation, honeysuckle, orange peel, urine and a bit of metal in the finish. Medium carbonation with a dry finish.

Bottle. Cloudy orange, huge white head. Mild lemon and wheat dough with quite sharp coriander and white pepper. Watery. A little fruit sweetness, mild spices with a touch of metal. Thirst slaker, but not deeply refreshing.

Bottle.Hazy yellow colour with white head who stays.Aroma 0f apricot and pineapple fresh fruity with gassy mouthfeels good note of wheat and yeast.

Has a nice huge head, a little heavy on the carbonation but a good bright yellow-white colour. Smells of citrus and hops, subdued, and not too strong. Taste is heavy on the detergent and perfumes, lots of hops and little else. A little too antiseptic for my liking, needs a little more "wheat" in the flavour to be a real wheat beer, if you know what I mean.
