Patersbier (for Saint Arnold)

Bottle pour at the brewery; $8. Slight haze, glossy, not exactly clear. Beautiful, voluminous bleached head. Scent is pale Belgian phenols, on the mild end, fruitier than the baseline. Taste is sulfited dry tropical fruit & dry strawberry cake, dusty wheat & a minerally swirl. Smooth texture. Bolder flavors than the Eurisko version had recently, but that one had a little more acidity & sessionable nature. Not super fond of this style but both my wife & I liked this one.
