Single from my local IGA. Pours a cloudy yellow colour with a bubbly white head, average retention, but some good lacing. Good corriander with citrus notes (lemon over orange) and Belgian Ale yeast. The taste is quite watery, very, very mild. Only on the last pour can I taste a bit of the yeast and maybe a little wheat. Expected a lot from this one, but quite disappointed. Hope the other witbier is better.

Bottle: Poured a light yellow color ale with a rather large pure white foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of light wheat malt with some subtle lemon notes. Taste is also dominated by medium wheat malt with light lemony notes. Body is light with good carbonation. Thyme notes are not easily discernible and doesn’t play a major role. Overall, light witbier that pale in comparison to other beers from the style.

Bouteille de 50cl, bottled on 23 Apr. 2013. Brune foncée, col épais café au lait. Arôme est subtile et offre un bouquet malté très agréable qui laisse des impressions de grillé, de noisette et café le tout restant axé sur les grains. Palais est léger mais complexe, belles notes de malts grillé et café - torréfié. Le palais est sec avec une touche subtile d’amertume des houblons laissant un citronné en fin de bouche. Palais reste modéré et consistant avec une pointe d’épaisseur de l’avoine.

Aroma is nice with coffee notes, some licorice and cocoa. Flavour has espresso, ashy notes and some salty licorice. Finishes with herbal notes. Quite strong hop profile for a stout. Nice.

Bouteille 50cl, bottled on 08 avril 2013, lot# 418. Orangée, col épais crémeux blanc cassé. Arôme est fleuri et houblonné dans une approche assez neutre - Centennial. Note subtile de levure avec un bouquet ardant une approche rappelant la drêche qui en se réchauffant éclipse les qcq notes de houblons. Palais est houblonné frais, note de grains. L’amertume est présente sans dominer mais laissant place à un profil agrumes modéré. Les malts restant quant à eux sous entre carapils-pâle, crystal sur une fine pointe de caramel - bready. Le tout est assez sec. Le houblonnage laisse petit à petit place à un fruité agrumes rappelant le pamplemousse et un herbacé léger qui viennent ajouter une certaine rondeur houblonnée à cette bière.

Tap: Poured a dark amber color ale with a large foamy head. Aroma consists of citrus hops with resinous notes. Taste is a mix between some citrus hops with resinous/herbal notes from the Myrique Baumier as well as some residual sugar and light caramel taste. Body is quite full with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. The spices are not as upfront as I would have imagined with the hops profile being quite dominant.
