33 cl bottle sampled 5 April, 2008.
The beer poured a denze, hazy body, yellow color. There was a thick off white head with thick bubbles. The nose was strong herbal and citrus. The taste had some solid wheat notes along with an herbal and citrus taste as well. I noticed some definite yeasty notes on the back of my mouth as well. Nice carbonation in the body with a peppery taste on the tongue after each sip. Overall a refreshing Luxembourgish beer and one of the better ones I have had.

Brasserie Cornelyshaff: Waïssen Ourdaller.
Strength: 4.6% ABV.
Style: Unfiltered Wheat Beer.
33cl Twisted and Curved Flute Serving Glass.
Tasted from the Bottle at the Brasserie Cornelyshaff Brewpub on 19th April 2003, during a Brewery Visit.
Bottle: A 33cl brown glass bottle with a silver crown cap. A simple red-bordered silver neck label that just says Ourdaller. The main red label has the beers name Waïssen Ourdaller and the phrase Aus dem Naturpark Our which roughly means from the Our Nature Park in Luxembourg. Heavily promoted as a natural beer, whatever the hell that means.
Appearance: Slightly cloudy but the pale yellow body means that you can still see through this beer. The head only starts to form halfway through the pour, but this lasts only for a short time, it quickly fades to reveal only a thin white collar than eventually becomes a halo. Only a handful of CO2 streamers are evident, average carbonation.
Smell: Acidic, sharp, biting nose that can make your eyes water if inhaled too deeply. Has a flowery dimension that would not win any awards in a perfume department.
Taste: A very sharp, citric tasting wheat beer. The strong sharp introduction makes way for spicy cloves, and a lemon twang in the middle. Slowly makes way for a banana finish that has a rough edge. Nice collection of flavors, but they are far from refined.
Mouthfeel: A spritzy, sharp acerbic puckering mouthfeel that had some lambic overtones. When I thought about this most lambics have similar ingredients to this raw Wheat Beer so maybe I was not imagining it.
Drinkability: Many of the people in our group of 32, some of whom profess to be die-hard Hoegaarden fans, found this Wheat Beer just a little too rugged to drink more than a couple of them. I agree. Its basic ingredients, there are no additives as in other wheat beers, can make this beer a little unpalatable after time and hard to drink than more than 2 or 3 of them.
Overall: Advertised as being made only from natural ingredients produced by the local farmers in the Cornelyshaff Co-Operative (Our valley). It uses Spelt Wheat, Special Malts, Yeast and Fresh Water from the Ardennes. No spices, orange peel, coriander, or any other additives are used. This makes for an aggressive wheat beer, whose rough edges we were just not used to. A Hard Drinkers Agricultural Wheat Beer, as one of our group referred to it. Nicely put. Still, its a fine wheat beer when you get used to it and I enjoyed its uniqueness.
