Struise Witte

Brewed by De Struise Brouwers
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Oostvleteren, Belgium

Serve in Tumbler, Weizen

33cl bottle at home. BB 06/2012, so I guess 1,5 years old. I had this once before, then I considered it rather regular, far from the greatest Struise brews. But now, the second time I’m have this I’m really suprised. The 1,5 years clearly have made this one into a great beer. Nice white head that fades really quick. Yellow, slightly cloudy beer. Great nose that comes out the moment you open the bottle (like an old Orval). Nose is almost similar to an Oude Geuze. Very fresh, sourish, balanced soft beer, low in carbonation. Fruits. As the bottle says: refreshing and tastfull!

Bottle. Pours clearish gold and white head. Nose/taste of burnt barley, bread, banana, coriander, Belgian yeast and lemon. Light body.

Pours a light golden amber color. Aromas of citrus/coriander/some hops. I not big a beers with coriander like tastes. Probably a good beer just not my cup of beer.

33cl Bottle from De Bierkoning. Slightly hazy golden colour, thin white head. Aroma of light citrus, hint of glue, but the aroma is very faint. Flavour is a bit of wheat and unfortunately mostly plastic, hint of nutmeg. Light bodied. Not good.

barnyard, light sour aroma,nice yellow color,cloudy, minimal head, light sweetness, lightly sour, medium body, oily feel, soft carbonation, long finish,

Light orange coloured and unclear. Has a white head, mostly diminishing. Aroma of old horse, dust, hasel-nuts, yeast and metal. flavor is mostly acidic, light sweet, light bitter, light astringent. Sprakling.

Looks like so many wheat beers. Bit hazy orange white head so on... Taste is good. There’s just enough sweetness, and mild bitter comes little after but is very very mild. Aroma has some citrus, bit basement and hmm egg? Nice, I like this.

Bottle at Antwerps Bierhuiske, Belgium august 2011. Pale golden, medium head. Citrus and herbs aroma. Tastes herbs and some spicies.
