Unibroue Blanche de Chambly

Brewed by Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Chambly, Canada

I wasn’t too crazy about this one. It had too much of a bitter lemony flavor to it for me. Just average

Pours a light golden color with an energetic white head. Aroma of yeasts, hops, wheat and a touch of citrus. Overall, this is not a bad Belgian white, but something is “empty” about the balance of spices and wheat present in this brew.

Cloudy straw color, no head, light lacing. Citrus and grass aroma. Sweet, thick mouth, fizzy on the tongue, bitter floral hops quickly balanced by thick malt after. Tasty brew, almost like a tripel. I liked this one quite a bit.

750ml. A pale golden yellow beer with an extra active white head. Nose is fairly muted, if I stick my nose in the bottle I get strong bread yeasts with a spritz of lemon and lime. Body is much more exciting, semi-sweet lemon and lime show up again, this time complimented by some nice citrus fruit and subtle spice. The palate is coated by extremely carbonated, light and almost thin body... just a bit on the thin side otherwise it would have gotten a 5 on the palate. A very solid, lighter witbier than I can see myself coming back to at the height of next summer.

[1657-20080903] Tap. Wheat and fruity yeast aroma has some grains. Hazy, light orange brown body with a long-lasting foamy white head. Fruity wheat flavour has some banana ’esters’ and some grainy yeast. Medium body. It’s nearly inconceivable that a beer made only 500km away from my home has made the journey of 4300km - nearly nine times that distance - to get to Skagway ON TAP, but is only really available back home in the liquor store in bottles. I figure if it took me a week and 4700km of flying and cruising to find all this out, then this is definitely the sample I’m going to rate... and even here it’s still enjoyable.

Light gold pour with fluffy off white head and drippy lace. Citrus and coriander on the nose. Similar flavor. Thin bodied, with the hot summer season dying down, I drank this at the time I presume

Pours cloudy pale yellow, thin head, yeasty lemon scent. Rotten taste, I’ve tried it 3 times and shame on me for thinking it would get better. It’s tastes like a belgian wheat beer, not my style, but I’ve tasted better beer of this style. I won’t drink it again.

[Eyes] Soft orange pale white color, with good foamy and decent white head. [Nouse] Sweet orange, lemon, notes of vanilla and yeast. Romantic aroma. [Mouth] mmm thin light and dry. Too much carbonationr, light citrics fruit and not enough malt and hop. Yeast flavors play with a good smooth citric flavor, a little more malt give a little more body...
