Bottle shared thanks to sjogro. Hazy light yellow with short lasting fizzy white head. Lemon, some nutmeg, coriander, olive oil, flowers, quite some wheat too. Loads of spices with some dusty wheat and citrus basically. Medium bitter and sweet. Medium bodied with a bit watery feel. Like a bad gin and tonic, way too much nutmeg too. Not my thing.

Under medium body, low carbonation. Meh. --- Beer merged from original tick of Hitachino Nest White Ale on 18 Dec 2017 at 12:28 - Score: 6. Original review text: 2.7

May ’16. A 0.33 l bottle that poured a pale yellow body with smaller head. Fine orange peel and herbal aroma along with some coriander and chalk (wheat). Flavor was neutral, between sweet, sour and bitter. Lemon, honey, tropical fruits (mango, pineapple), coriander, sweetish towards the end. Some vegetable off notes, too. Thinner in body, but not extremely, like some other wits. Nice chalky finish. A decent wit, pleasant.

330ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Pale cloudy orange/yellow colour with a one finger white head, dissipating fairly quickly. Aroma of loads of orange peel, coriander, nutmeg, wheat, yeast. Taste matches the aroma, lots of orange flavour, coriander, spiciness from the nutmeg, wheat. Some citrus bitterness and sourness from the orange. Medium-heavy carbonation. An ok wit, not as good as Belgian ones.

Soft thin white head and an intruiging meringue yellow body with minimal carbonation. A lot of hay on the nose, orange juice, coriander hints. Strong mushroom flavour with citric notes, wheat hints. Unique flavour and quite easy to drink.
