Like a very weak, faintly sour mineral Hoegaarden,...

Golden, citrus, little white bubbly head. Nose is strong sour wheat, very lactic, tart, light coriander,… Taste is lactic sour wheat, coriander, tad watery, low carbonation, the sourness feels not okay for me. Witbier’s rarely work for me & this one doesn’t at all.

75cl. Dorée paille, col épais blanc. Arôme au nez épicé tirant fortement sur la coriandre. Rétro citronné noble sur qcq notes malt froment. Palais est épais, froment, pointe épicée perdurant tout au long avec pas mal de coriandre le tout sur une note pelure citronnée-agrumes. ok, mais juste une version mainte fois revisitées qui est surfaite au niveau des épices.

Something not nice in the aroma and flavour. It’s a bit sulphuric. Aside from that it’s a fairly fresh, sharp wit.

Pol Ghekiere’s ’tarwedubbel’, bought from him at La Vieille Forge and consumed at the premises and later at home. Made with pale barley malts, malted wheat, oats, coriander, curaçao and lemon peel, so a bit deviating from the Hoegaarden standard. Stable, off-white, milky head, hazy yellowish blonde colour with slight greenish hue. Fresh aroma of indeed wheat and oats, lemon zest, noticeable coriander, soap; citrussy onset with mild lemon touch and some drying coriander, velvety and smooth mouthfeel, pretty strong carbo, mild aromatically hopped finish, not really bitter. Very pure and refreshing, a lot better than Hoegaarden and its epigones.
