As if in consultation, the 3 local brewers - or brewery clients - in and around Knesselare (NW of Flanders), made a special wheatbeer for this summer. All the more reason to compare them next to each other. So this rating is part of the Great Pan-Knesselare Wheatbeertasting. In order: Ierbius Schuum an je Neuze (Ierbius, Kleit), Run through a Field of Wheat (The Musketeers, Ursel), and Geirn Meugen Tarwe (Van Renterghem, Knesselare). One tip off the veil: the most remarkable feat turned out to be than none of the three had any sign of the classical wheatacidity... Medium to good, very fine & dense snowwhite head, stable over clear golden beer, finely carbonated. Very perfumey nose, aromatic -, just no wheat! Bit citrussy, mainly limejuice; rosewater, which keeps going on. Rosewater in force in the flavour - no doubt the hop used. Very faint, but aromatic citrus. Still a bit of restsugars - milkripe wheat? Light-creamy MF, just not sticky. The almondy-rosewater flavour just keeps going on. Light body, bit low on carbonation. Whatever hops made for this rosewater/almandine onslaught - it's nice, but definitely exaggerated and in the end, tiring. I can't see myself drinking several of these when intented to quench a summer's thirst.

33cl bottle. A clear pale golden beer with a small most good lasting white head. Aroma of citrusy hops, wheat, hints of banana. Taste of intense floral and grassy hops, citrus fruits, mid sweet banana and wheat malt, okay!
