beeR (60) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUL 23, 2008
25 cl bottle. Pured in two times because of a abundant, creamy, fluffy and long lasting head. The beer is oddly really clear, almost transparent I’d say. Only the finishig part, poured after some sips, turns to a more wit-like hazy colour (at least what I expect from a wit beer!). Anyway golden-yellow. The aroma is very light, I’d say soft, although quite complex and various. Spicy and banana tones come first, than orange peel and a dash of citrus. I can feel also some yeast character but anything overwhelming. The body is medium-light, almost watery for me, but a light and long lasting fizzines coats the mouth and dominate the aftertaste as well.Anyway a mix of sourness and bitetrness leave a pleasant feeling which matchs with spicy tones. In my opinion a little bit of character is lacking

25 cl. bottle at ’t Brugs Beertje. Light spicy aroma. Hazy golden color (dishwater) with a frothy white head. Near medium body with creamy carbonation. Thins a bit. Flavor seems coriander with a light touch of zest. Very nice.

[1169-20080302] Tap. Slightly plastic wheat field aroma. Hazy, light yellow brown body with tiny bubbles throughout, a long-lasting creamy white head and nice latticing. Floral hay wheat flavour has a hint of lemon pip bitterness. Light body has a mild tang. Interesting to try.
