Wittekerke

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

330 ml bottle. Pale yellow, cloudy beer topped by a white head. Almost non-existant aroma. A bit of lemon citrus, wheaty spice and some appley esters. Flavour is also citrusy with a touch of coriander as well. Nice spiciness and a fairly pronounced pale maltiness. Quite a nice wit, but a little bit timid.

(Draught, The Wharf, Aalborg).- Cloudy, light golden colour. Spicy nose, with loads of coriander, lemons, coconut and flowery notes. The taste is pretty fruity, with peaches, oranges and a predominant coriander caracter. - Very refreshing and nice !

From a 330 cl bottle. This poured a cloudy light gold with a foamy white head. The aroma is refreshing with lemons, flowers and corriander. There is also some banana in the nose. The taste has overripe peaches with a hint orange rinds. The mouthfeel is soft, but this needs a little more character. Overall, a decent wit that smells better than it tastes.

A very attractive clouded pour with aromas of citrus, blueberry and wheat bread. This is a perfectly pleasant witbier, perfect for sunny outdoor days. Crisp and clean with just the slightest little lemon bite. It is light on the palate with a quick finish. A thirst quencher.

Smells of citrusy bread with a lemon barnyard tone. Pours a cloudy yellow with all sorts of little brown floaties. Not an attractive beer but still some lacing on the glass. Grassy flavors with a lemony citrus sweet mildness in the finish. Light and smooth in the mouth. Not a bad canned brew but not my favorite witbier.

Light Golden color body with a tight white head. Floral aroma - almost hoppy in scent (but no hops in this bier). Drinks quite smooth with delicate citrus flavors. It reminds me of a certain bier that uses an orange peel to give itself flavor. Quite a nice find for the limited Wheat-Beer selection we have here in BC. It’s definitely on my top available beer list now :) **UPDATE** I drank three of these in a row and didn’t get much of a ’buzz’ off of them. Even though it says 5% I feel it must be much lower :(

Golden bodywith a small white head. Grassy aroma. Citric honey flavours standout. Coriander and some ivory soap. Thinner with a slightly sweet finish.

Enjoyable. 355mL can. Foggy pale, almost sick looking yellow color. Foamy white head and lace. Aroma is slightly peppery, spicy, citrus, candy. Flavor is fruity with banana hints. Good tart mouthfeel leaves a sligthly metallic aftertaste. Still, one of the best canned brews I’ve sampled so far.
