COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Blanche De Brooklyn, a traditional Belgian-style white beer, or biere blanche, is named after its striking pale color. Blanche de Brooklyn, formerly a seasonal product, is now available year-round. White beers are made with a traditional dose of coriander seed and Curacao orange peel added during the boil for extra snappy flavor. Brewmaster Garrett Oliver also adds his own secret selection of spices of Blanche de Brooklyn.

A darn fine witbier. Smooth and refreshing with loads of spice and citrus with a nice chunk of banana flavor to finish it off. A really enjoyable wit, kudos to Brooklyn on this one.

This is one of those beers where I just don’t like the taste or style of the beer. I don’t particularly like witbiers. But of my limited knowledge of witbiers, I thought this was a well-made beer. It had quite a bit of flavor and I bet most people who like witbiers would like this one. So, this is hard to rate, but i will rate it based on my preferences...

I had this at the release party a few years ago and it was then, and still is, one of the best of style. Garrett Oliver is a master when it comes to authentically producing classic styles.
