Dave's BrewFarm Grenade Blanche. 6.7% ABV. Pils malt fermented with a wit yeast and a late addition of pomegranate juice. Yum, yum, let's have some.
Brilliant golden hue, booming white head, slims down slowly, looking good.
Aroma: The hallmarks of a witbier are here, slightly sweet, airy, wheat, with a twist of tart. Little touch of funk and fruit.
Taste: Light-bodied, lean, smooth and with just the slightest bit of fruit. Little tart, little sweet. It's another odd amalgam in this one, the yeast from one style of ale, and the malt from another. "How about if we make a witbier without wheat", wonders Farmer Dave, "and what if we used pilsner malt with ale yeast?" What if, he wonders. You get a very clean malt base, with a touch of the wit flavors and a flash of the fruit. Small splash of spice, as well.
It's another nice experiment, but there is a bit of a clash. I won't call it a failed experiment, but it didn't quite hang together the way I'd like it to.
