Author: Escape To Beer | Filed under: Beer Reviews

 
Name: Red And White  

Brewery: Dogfish Head  

Overall Rating: B  

Style:  Belgian Style Wit Bier  

Serving Style:  1 pint 9.6 oz bottle  

ABV: 10 %  

IBU: 35  

Price: $ 12.99  

Aroma:  From the start, I got hit with an orange and coriander aroma.  Also I captured some sweetness from the fruits.  

Appearance: Amber with a strong orange tone.  Somewhat opache with decent carbonation for a big brew and with some lacing.  

Flavor: I can definately taste the orange peals and red grapes.  Fruity tasting for sure with a strong witbier taste.  Lots of spiceyness and yeastiness happening too.  

Mouthfeel: Good and creamy mouthfeel with a mild alcohol burn.  

Enjoyability: Good belgian style brew.  A good sipping beer to have with some good friends over a good meal.

    Gotta love the Belgians. Seems like the perfect sipping beer. I’ll have to give it a shot next time I run across it.

    Had this on tap a few weeks back at the Winking Lizard. It’s a very unique brew. Not one I would buy the standard 750ML bottle of, but a good complex brew.
