I had this on tap at the brewery, nice hazy yellow pour with a good tangy flavor. The lemongrass witbier idea is a winner.

Tap and bottle. White head, hazy golden body. Aroma of lemon grass, sage, coriander, citrus and dryer sheets. Taste is watery, lemon, and coriander. Dry, Candi finish. Fizzy

I found this at Umami Burger on Hollywood Blvd. What an interesting idea for a beer. The bottle design is amazing. The beer pours a cloudy straw yellow. I get hints of fruity pebbles in the nose. The Belgian Witt is clean and tastes better with each sip. Major props to the creator of this craft beer.

Bomber. First off, let me commend the folks at Nakhon for a beautiful bottle, definitely a classy touch! Pours is cloudy lemon meringue-yellow, with minimal head. Ample lacing however, which lends lasting visual appeal. Nose is soft herbs and spices, a good amount of clove-banana esters, and wheat. Sweet essence. Palate is quite creamy, perhaps that oat addition is more noticeable than I had anticipated. Flavors start with a hit of banana, then layer nicely with subtle lemongrass and sweet wheat. Like any good Belgian, the exact blend of spices is difficult to pick up on. This beer manages to achieve subtlety, unique flavor, and a luxurious palate. Finish is mildly dry, complementary. Lemongrass White is attractive to drink on its own, or even better, as an accompaniment for that Chinese-style steamed Salmon and Bok Choy I’m eating right now!

Tap at the brewery. 1st rating! Hazy light yellow pour with a bright white head. Wow, this has a tremendous aroma, all the spices and wheat and the lemongrass came through big time. Flavor was similar, lots going on there, very nice beer. (1051)
