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.

Hazy yellow colour and low density lively white foam. Aroma is a little musty. Flavour is too sour. This has a similar acidity to chamapgne. Awful stale taste and overall unpleasant aroma.

Bottle. Pours to a straw colored body with a super dense fully lasting nitro looking white head. The aroma is very good. Citrus rinds, herbal notes of some kind of flowers like hibiscus and starfruit. The flavor is a wheaty orange oil and mandarin oranges with a tart yeast and subtle coriander. Refreshing palate but average texture. A very unique wit. Significant flavor differences to any other I’ve sampled.

[1181-20080303] 330mL. Faint aroma of wheat and lemon. Hazy, light brown orange body with a long-lasting creamy white head. Generic wheat grain flavour has hints of bitter lemon rind. Medium body finishes bitterly. Average.

Golden colored and pours a huge white fluffy head with good retention. The aroma is malty, with some grass and herbal with just a touch of citrus. The flavor is a citrus tang; I get orange, coriander and lemons along with wheaty malts. Acidic with quite a bit of carbonation. Seemed a bit thin and over carbonated. Interesting, refreshing beer and overall pretty good but nothing special.

Bottled. Cloudy golden/orange coloured, lasting head, lots of carbonation. Fruity nose, some yeast. Somewhat bitter flavour, spices, some yeast. Doesn’t really taste like a Witbier, because of the hops it seems more like a Belgian ale. Nice thirst quencher.

Bottle from Ølkonsortiet. Creamy white excellent mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Light malty and hoppy aroma. Moderate bitter flavor. Short moderate bitter finish. Oily palate. This beer really lacks fruity esters and citrus notes. Not much witt about it. I dont like it.
