Brewery Ommegang Witte
by Andy

I’m usually one to get a six-pack and have multiple sittings with a beer before I review it, but for whatever reason this single big bottle really stood out to me. Overall pretty decent, definitely (as the bottle says) “Worth the Wheat”

Brewery Hometown: New York

Appearance: Comes in huge fucking bottle, get ready to invest into drinking this beer (in a good way). Unfiltered pale yellow, HUGE head. This head don’t fuck around, and is supported by many minion bubbles from underneath.

Aroma: Strong wheat. Rich. This gives the impression of a German drinking-mans beer…or something.

Taste: Very little carbonation bite despite the number of furious bubbles. Goes down smooth. Surprisingly light. Delicate wheat flavor that leaves very little after you take a nice swig. After a few the wheat is feeling a little stale? Has light undertones of orange peel and coriander…been there done that, but nice. Surprisingly authentic for a brewery from NEW YORK CITYYYY? (referencing those old salsa ads). Generally nice beer to have, not a standout, but the bottle size is tops. Definately would check out more from this brewery.

Alcohol: 5.1%

Drink one or all?: One. Its a big bottle I tell ya. 750ml. That’s a WINE BOTTLE.

Cost: $3? / 1 bottle

Overall: 8.3/10 Like a cute girl you would hang out with, but not really date.


COMMENTS / ONE COMMENT

Someone gave me a bottle of this last week. Definitely not bad. I was surprised and happy that I got it, for free no less!
