St. Bernardus Blanche (Witbier)

Bottle from Shigadeyo! Nose very yeasty with citrus and light spices; hazy copper gold with a medium white head; flavor is lactic acidwith grainy yeast and a little cloves. Quite different.

Bottle. Hazy golden yellowish in colour with a rather large white head. Fruity with notes of yeast, banana, citrus, spices and faint sour hints.

11.2oz bottle from Kingdom Liquors Brandon, Fl. Pours a hazy golden with a large white head that fades to a thin ring and leaves good lacing. Aroma of of soft white wheat, citrus, yeast, and spice. The taste is the same with a mild tartness. Spices are light and well balanced. A very refreshing beer.

Bottle from Party Source. Poured hazy yellow with a minimal frothy white head that mostly diminished with fair lacing. Moderate yeasty sour citrus aroma. Light to medium body. Medium citrus sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of short duration. My expectations where not met.

This is simply the best blanche I’ve had in Belgium. It tastes as if it leaves out the spices and fruits, sticking with classic purity. Cloudy, whitish yellow. Aroma leans heavily toward grain and bread instead of citrus. Seriously wheaty flavor, refreshing without relying on lots of lemon or orange peel. Light, lively and bready. Some hops come through on the back-tongue and finish. No surprise that one of the country’s best breweries makes one its best wheats.

Best Witbier I’ve had thus far. thick off white head.. foamy... taste and palate screams the high quality of St. Bernardus. Hints of coriander and citrus.

Rating # 1800. Bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow colour with a big firm thick creamy white head. Aroma of yeast, wheat, citrus and coriander. Flavour of wheat, coriander, some spices and yeast. Slight sour wheaty finish.

The color was a foggy peach. The head was creamy, foamy, and off-white. The aroma was tart, citrisy, yeasty, and hoppy. The flavor was citris, clean, and sour. The flavor was really refreshing. The palate was very smooth. The finish was clean.
