Celis White (Belgian)

An unclear light yellow beer with a fine head. The aroma fruity and dominated by lemon. The flavor is rather sour and like lemon. In the middle it is a little wheaty flat and sweet. In the end the flavor is slightly acidic wheaty. A very fresh beer. I think the Belgian version is more sour than the American version.

Bottled Clear pale golden, rich head. Fresh, orangey nose. Light bodied and medium sweet. Fairly simple, but very refreshing. A very good wit!

(Bottle 25 cl) Paleish yellow, with a very white, rather small head. Nice citrusy touches and a soft tartness. But nice and rounded with lots of flavours. Almost no body and no bitternes either. But quenching indeed. 181096

Cloudy yellow colour. Malty, cheesy aroma - though purists would argue this is not actually cheese but some vile plasticy crap that calls itself cheese. The French certainly wouldn’t call it cheese and I suspect the Belgians wouldn’t either. That kind of cheese. Not something I want to smell in a beer, to say the least. The body is tart and watery with only a hint of coriander and an accent of nutmeg. A shade of a wit, and evidence that without vigilant stewardship, legacies have no staying power.

25 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Sweet wheaty, citric and coriander spiced aroma. Citric sweet flavour, somewhat mellow wheaty in mouthfeel and flavour. It has that distinct coriander note which becomes slight too dominant to make the beer become really great. Ends slight lemonish and dry.
