Commercial Description:
Bière de blé d'inspiration belge. Cette bière est aromatisée d'écorces d'orange et de coriandre. D'apparence voilée, c'est une bière très rafraîchissante aux effluves légèrement épicés.

Orange pour with thin white head. Aroma is rather weak a bit of spice, citrusand orange peel. Good full mouthfeel, verry little carbonation. Taste is rather bready, orange and herbal. Good balance.

Bottle, again at Saucisserie BDF, who else? 6,99$ for 750ml. Drank a few hours after a slightly deceiving Blanche de Chambly and I liked Hopfenstark’s rendition of this beer style I don’t like much. This one is far smoother and easily drinking and does not have that nasty sourness. Of course, there’s coriander but is rather discreet. So is the hoppiness: too bad here. Notes of fruits and grain are also obvious. For fans of the style, I think it is very interesting, as good as DDC’s Blanche du Paradis, with maybe more depth and body.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy beige color ale with a small bubble head with minimal retention and no lacing. Aroma consists of coriander and wheat malt with some dry notes. Taste is also dominated by loads of coriander with a lightly sour and dry aftertaste. Body is quite full with limited filtration with some low carbonation. Interesting and different take on the style but additional carbonation would have been welcomed.

On tap at Moniale 2009. Was expecting, and did receive a solid witbeer. Cloudy yellow with orange highlights. Some sourness. Well carbonated. A bit too cold for a sample, but that’s OK. Good drinkability

[1794-20081017] Tap. Lovely spiced wheat aroma has a bit of cooking spices. Hazy, light orange brown body with quick white bubbles. More spiced wheat in the flavour with hints of cooked banana. Medium body. Lovely balance and aftertaste, very impressive brew.
