355ml can - day 7 of the 2018 Parallel 49/Red Racer Alpine Adventure Pack. A witbier infused with 'fruit tea'.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and mild creamy off-white head, which leaves a few instances of advancing wavecrest lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of bready and grainy wheat malt, some estery yeastiness, mild dark berry fruity notes, some earthy coriander, and very tame musty, leafy, and herbal green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, Belgian yeast, some peach and apricot fruitiness, fading coriander spice, ethereal citrus rind, and more well-understated herbal, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really a cause for concern at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the yeast and depleted graininess showing the most lingering, um, sass.
Overall - yeah, if you didn't inform me that there was tea added to this offering, I wouldn't have even suspected, as the frooty essences could certainly have come from the yeast or malformed citrus additions. At any rate, this is a pleasant enough quaff, definitely worthy of promotion from the bunny slope.
