Belgian White Tasting
So I['m back home for the weekend where I have a few bottles stored where I know what they are.
Date: March 28th, 2008
Time Since Bottling: ~5 weeks
Color: Dark Golden with a hint of orange.
Clarity: Cloudy
Aroma: Light-Medium Hop aroma (sweeter smelling hops), and a bit of coriander.
Head: Started with a good 1"+ of head after pour. After about 5 minutes sitting has about 1/4"
Tasting Notes: Fairly light tasting. Sweet at first, but turns more spicy quickly. It starts off smooth but kind of hangs in your mouth after swallowing. You can taste the coriander, but I wish there was more of an orange taste in it. The next batch I brewed used sweet orange peel instead of bitter orange peel, so I will be interested to see how it turns out. We also used more coriander and orange peel. After about half of the glass, there is still some head left, it seems to be holding pretty well. It is leaving a little bit of "head rings" on the glass as it is being drank, but not much. This is a little spicy/bitter for my taste, but it isn't bad. About 10-15 minutes after pouring I'm close to the end of the glass, and there is still some head, which is good to see.
