Wittekerke

Brewed by Bavik-De Brabandere
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Harelbeke, Belgium

looks like grapefruit juice with a good,medium sized foamy white head. tastes also a bit like grapefruit juice with lots of lemon and a bit of yeast. sour, a little acidic. Feels like it had a bit of gin mixed in it. leaves mouth. dry and acrid fresh and OK

25cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, easy to drink, not complex, balanced, cloudy, small head, nice Belgian White

hazy yellow with white head. doesnt smell too great. pretty watery with some sweet lemon. just a hint of wheat at the end

12oz can poured into a Wittekerke glass. Pours a beautiful, BEAUTIFUL hazy yellow with a perfect, fluffy white head. Nose is soap, soap, and more lemon soap degreaser. Body follows suit, lemon soap. Palate is very refreshing and overall very tasty. I am very conflicted about this beer, it is not complex in any shape way or form but what it does have is VERY tasty. No funky aftertaste or weird yeasty flavors to speak of. Very, very drinkable.

12oz can poured to hoegaarten tumbler. garage sale yeast. smells like it too. WAY too cloudy. makes me wonder if a big corporate entity wanted to make a beer that was naturally cloudy, how many cheap options they would have to make a beer artificially cloudy. nose is weak, next to zero yeast and just a bit of lemon. a taste is of strong lemon and little else.body is ultra thin and very lightly carbonated. i can deal with carbonation level but a wit should be slightly substantial due to the solids floating around in here. maybe the monosodium gluteamate they used instead of yeast to make it cloudy doesnt provide a real body. hoegaarten is better then this, and more available and about the same price. havent had many bluemoods but i dare say that might be even better, or at least similar.

Aroma - Lemon and honey notes with hints of spice

Appearance - Slightly hazy yellow pour, medium white head

Flavor - Starts off lightly sweet, a crisp tartness follows

Palate - Light, effervescent, dry finish and a clean palate

Overall - Not bad for a summer refresher. Flavors are subdued.

11.2 oz can shared by doboy, along with DrBayern and Steve. Pours a hazy, straw color. Aroma of yeasty lemons and cloves. Light flavour of the same, clean and refreshing beer! Not very complex, however extremely tastey!
