De Hopt. En copa Teku. Ordenando biblioteca de Steam. Wit correcta, quizás levemente más especiada de la cuenta pero tampoco estropea la experiencia

Rather cloudy amber brew with plenty of foam in the tumbler. Fizzy, light bodied, and creamy carbonation is very inviting when you're thirsty. The nose is wheaty with some light bread. Flavors of straw and cereal. A little grainy with the hint of coriander. The spices are not at all strong and give just a little bitterness.

I can't find much fault with this. It has plenty of flavor without being obtrusive, and the bit of spice gives some balance to the warm malt. Highly quaffable at the end of the hottest days I've experienced in a long time. From the 500 ml can purchased in Annecy, France.

Decanted from an 11.2 oz (330 ml) brown bottle into a conical pint glass; no production information.
A: Pours a murky, golden/brown color with obvious chunks of yeast floating in a suspension throughout. Minimal head with virtually no retention or lacing.
S: Aromas of molasses, honey, and coriander with a tutti-fruity note.
T: Semisweet. Tastes of light molasses, grass and herbs, coriander, and apple.
M: Medium bodied with very little carbonation.
O: Could be a flavorful enough Witbier, but not nearly effervescent enough. Could be livelier.

This is more of a herbed ale than a witbier. Even though it's wheat forward, the herbs and fruits from the maquis are strong and remind me more of cervoise (something like a gruit) than a beer (i'm not sure there even hop in this one)

浅金黄色,呈现半透明的云雾状,泡沫细腻,但不持久,轻微挂壁。气味清爽,苦甜交加。沙口感,有明显酸味、苦味,余味苦。沙口感过后呈现奶油般的顺滑口感。整体上麦芽香味不明显。
