3 Brasseurs Blanche 4.7% " Biere de mals d’orge et de froment, -delicatement acidulee, tres desalteeralnte". Tap served at a good temp with a nice sized foamy white head that soon settle to a ring and a bit of lace. Color is a clear amber after it settles a bit. Aroma is malt, beer,  yeast, a bit of fruit and spice. Flavor is like nose with just the right amount of carbonic tang to balance  other flavors. Body is great; ditto carbonation. Finish is like flavor, has some length and surprisingly due to low alcohol a bit of warmth, but is very drinkable and well crafted.

Pours a cloudy whitish golden with a small white top. Aroma is mainly wheat and some malt although it is very faint. Taste is light, wheaty with nice banana esters and some clove. Very nice Belgian White.

montreal location: hazy yellow, fluffy white head. coriander, lemon, yeast and pepper aroma. wheaty malt and lemony flavour, with some tropical fruit notes(passion fruit, mango, pineapple, banana). different and interesting. nice.

BückDich (5467) - McCall, Idaho, USA - AUG 24, 2005
Draught at the brewpub in Montreal
Dark cloudy yellow, lots of sediment, even more than most heavily bottle conditioned ones and this is a 4oz sample! Nose of sweet banana and rich clove. Nice sweetness with hallertau notes, a bit off with wheat flavor but good. Not too dry.

On tap at the brewpub. I have respect for a brewer that can brew a good wit and I thought this was excellent.

I’m definitely a fan of this one. Les 3 Brasseur beers tend to be highly underrated on this website IMO, too many sobs that hate on a place because its trendy or without good reason. This pours a nice cloudy gold color with good head retention and some lacing. Smells of citrus with a hint of malt. Tastes super refreshing with citrus overtones and the acidic bite at the end makes it great for a hot summer day (or any time, really ) would definitely order again (and I always do!)

hombrepalo (1401) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUL 20, 2009
sampler 1 of 4 @ Toronto. Poured a nice cloudy wheat yellow, nice fluffy head. Smells like lemon zest and yeast. Taste is citrusy, crisp, refreshing and light. A nice brew, probaby the best of the four.

I’m pretty sure this is the Blanche that is on at the new Toronto brewpub (it might be a good idea to make "3 brewer" alias’ for all of these beers - the blonde, amber and dark, as well as this, as there will be double entries, new entries, and confusion from the Toronto location). Anyway, I liked this one. Nice cloudy yellow with a good sized white head. Tons of dry yeast and citrus in aroma. More in the taste, solid medium carbonated body. The best of the brewpub bunch by far.

diabel (1538) - Aarschot, BELGIUM - SEP 2, 2009
Draught at the brewpub Hazy, yellow body. Off-white creamy head. Aroma of orange peel, citrus, some hops: quite weak all in the end. Flavour has notes of orange/citrus, is quite fresh as the other beers from les 3 Brasseurs, it has some stickiness in the flavour. Overall, quite nice with an ok balance and even some complexity.
