Ommegang Witte

3 Apr

Name - Ommegang Witte
Country - United States
Type - Witbier

Appearance - Poured a cloudy straw gold color with a big bubbly white head.

Smell - Pleasant citrus smells, predominantly lemon but some orange notes in there as well.  Some mild spice smells in there as well.

Taste - Very nice mixture of the citrus tastes as mentioned before with some spices making it a very flavorful white.

Ommegang are quickly become a favorite of mine as they make solid beers to the style that they are going for.  Witte is no different.  It has a great smell and taste that fit the mold of what a white beer should be perfectly.

Overall Grade – A

    This member of the Duvel family doesn’t fall far from the proverbial tree. They make good stuff…their Chocolate Indulgence is pretty nice as well.

    I didn’t realize they were with Duvel until last night when I saw it on the label. I have yet to have anything from Duvel but will make it a point to pick something up on my next visit to the store.

    Dude…you must drink Duvel’s Golden Ale. We’ve reviewed it on our site; it is the quintessential example of the style. Here is our review. http://thankheavenforbeer.com/2008/10/05/drink-with-us-fridayduvel-review/
