Commercial Description:
The Noordhoek Ostrich Farm and Resort has been offering visitors an oasis of silence, tranquility and green pasture since 1997. In 2001 we began offering our guests fresh, homemade ale, "Struise Witte" was born. The dutch word for "ostriches" is "struisvogels" or "Struise", but the same word can also mean "sturdy" or "robust". This "Robust White" is a living wheat beer of high fermentation, unfiltered and unpasteurized. Brewed with natural ingredients, bottle conditioned in 33 cl bottles.

The aroma is fresh, with coriander and lemon, but subdued. Prototypical wit in the appearance (hazy yellow gold), and solid, perfectly to style body. More citric, lactic than many wits - the lemon is very pronounced. It’s very thirst quenching, and I love the flavor despite it being unidimensional. The aroma is good but there is just not enough of it.

Bottle. Pours a good cloudy yellow colour with a thick creamy big and long lasting white head leaving a good lacing. Aroma of wheat, yeast, citrus and some good frutiness . Flavour of wheat with citrus, some bítter hops, spices and with surprisingly sweet exotic fruitiness. Quite dry wheaty and bit spiced finish.

Bottle from the Blue Dog. Dense flocullation on the bottom; poured a straw body with cloudy particulate load and a fading sudsy white head. Light-toasted wheat aroma with mild notes of butter and citrus peel. Flavor has aspects of nuts, honey, citrus, herbal spice, and meaty yeast. Some autolysis in this one. Not exactly what I’m looking for in this style range.

From 33 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a one finger thick white head, long lasting becoming thick and creamy. Aroma is slight citric and yeasty, slight malty sweet and spiced. Sweet malt flavoured with spice notes (some darker spices as well) and complex yeast profile, but very classic belgian. Mellow malty finish with presence of bitterness.

Typical, whitish yellow color, very hazy and turbulent. Aroma is complex, fruit, spicy and slightly malty. Flavor begins on the sweetish side, but dries to a plesant finish. Exceeded my expectations, nice wit.
