Based on a German Kristallweizen style beer, but in a nod to its origins, Moa Blanc is brewed using renowned Sauvignon Blanc wine yeast. A blend of 50% wheat malt and 50% barley malt results in an elegantly smooth beer with hints of spice and uplifting esters.

A hazy golden ale with a thick white head. A strong lemony and catty aroma, herbal and wild, not bad. In mouth, a very dryish wit, with light herbaceous touch, but no distinguishing fruitiness of a wit. Bottle from Oliver’s, Albany.

Nice clear golden coloured body with a large frothy white head. Aroma of metal, yeast, wheat and a bit of honey. Medium-bodied; Strong aroma of wheat, coriander seed and curacao - not much else, but not bad. Aftertaste shows some honey and coriander seed with a bit of yeast. Overall, a decent wit, not amazing, but definetly good to try! I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from K&E Discount Beverage in New Paltz, New York on 20-June-2009, sampled on the Fourth of July 2009 on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

(Bottle 37,5 cl) Pours a hazy golden with a creamy, white head leaving some lacework. Aroma of yeast and malts. Medium in body with sweetish banana esters and some yeast. The finish is dry and phenollic. Reminds me more of a German Hefe actually. 130208

Green bottle. Something of a lightly spicy, citrus aroma. Golden color with a decent white head. Almost medium bodied with creamy carbonation. The flavor seems to have cardamom and light orange peel. A very slight sweetness. Turns a bit bready as the finish approaches. The finish is dry and lightly bitter. Floral hop? Very pleasant drink.
