Brewed by Au Maître Brasseur for Supermarché Rahmann - the second such partnership between the two. Its a wheatbeer which purportedly contains a secret blend of Indian spices.
The initial pour kicked up a large effervescent white head, but this fizzled away almost instantly, leaving a few bubbles clinging to the edge of a cloudy straw yellow body, replenished by a steady carbonation. The aroma is more or less standard for a Belgian wheat, with notes of coriander, grain and citrus peel.
The initial taste reveals a slightly unpleasant citric bitterness, but on subsequent tastes this thankfully disappears. A good wheat backbone provides the basis on which the other flavours are constructed. Coriander, at first subtle, but then increasingly predominant, provides the lead accent. Lemon becomes apparent in the finish, with the coriander again cropping up. I think I know my way around a spice cupboard, but other than the aforementioned coriander, I'm not really picking anything else up from the 'secret blend of Indian spices' mentioned on the label.
The body is as it should be, in my opinion, light and with medium carbonation to keep the flavours crisp. Its certainly a very decent beer, and I think it got better over time, as the flavours became more pronounced. The flavour helps to push it past its weak appearance, and the lightness certainly makes it easy to drink, and it didn't last all that long in front of me.
