"Blanche de Baghaven is inspired by the soft, cloudy, spiced wheat-based beers of Belgium. What started as a very traditional base of barley and wheat was spiced generously with bitter orange peel, cumin, and coriander. It was then fermented in oak barrels with a traditional strain of yeast originating from Belgium, alongside our house yeast and bacteria.⠀
What starts as a traditional Wit beer is slowly transformed by our house yeast and bacteria for 22 months in oak barrels. Blanche de Baghaven was then blended with a small portion of one-year old Danish Wild Ale to achieve a balance and complexity that compliments the base beer."

Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma of citrus, hay, wheat, funk, coriander, and a lovely citrusy aroma with notes of coriander and lemon. The flavor is moderate zesty sour with lingering fruity acidity and a malty, bready, and acidic taste with spicy yeasty notes. It feels light, juicy, and easy to drink, with a moderate body and high carbonation. The finish is sour, spicy, and fruity, with a moderate bitterness.
