Bottle shared with and courtesy of an on-heat platypus on an Artic Den Haag winter’s eve. Hazy dark golden with a small off white head. Aroma of wheat, light toffee, malt, yeast and light fruit. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Bottle from Het Haasken in Diest, cheers to the owner. Moussy, egg-white, fairly stable head retaining well on the edges and in the middle, residing over a hazy peach blonde beer. Aroma of bubblegum, gooseberry, white bread, sourdough, freshly cut grass and sorrel, flowers, cooked potato, soap, fried banana, some cooked cauliflower (DMS), straw, pear, even a vague whiff of striked matches (DMTS). Crisp, estery onset, sweetish with typical ’Belgian yeast’ aspects of banana, peach and gooseberry with a subtle raw pineapple sourishness persisting throughout the palate; medium carbo with a slightly minerally effect, somewhat oily, smooth mouthfeel; lightly bready pale malt sweetishness in the middle with caramelly edges while the Belgian esters continue on their path; finishes with a mild, ’noble’, floral and earthy hop bitterishness balancing the malt sweetness. A faint glow of alcohol appears after swallowing. Some weak off-flavours here, but otherwise more or less okay. I do have a big issue with style categorization, though: the label does not make any mention of wheat being used here at all (nor of coriander or any other spice either, but who knows...), so I wonder where the ’Wheat’ designation comes from. The ’Bok’ (or in this case: ’Buk’) part has a lot more to do with a local legend than with the German or Dutch Bock traditions as well. So how can this be a Weizenbock, or even a wheat ale in the more general sense of the word? If anything, this is merely a Belgian blonde, and quite an average one at that.

Rusty orange colour. Aroma is spicy, wheaty, yeasty. Flavour has some bitter citrus peel and sweet caramel in the finish

Bottled. Orangeish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is quite sweet malts, some floral, wheaty and mild yeasty notes. Flavour is quite sweet caramel malts, toffee, mild floral notes as well as some yeast. Not all too much of a witbier imho... Rather a sweet Belgian ale.
