I have been wanting to try Hitachino beers for a while now. I am not usually a fan of white beers, but I will give this one a try soon.

Dave you know that Hitachino Nest is one of my favorite lines out there. MAN that stuff is good. Red Rice Ale FTW.

@arkhamresident we’re going to have to start passing our videos by you for editorial purposes

@jeff, originally wheat beers were brewed with only gruit. Since then, hops have been added in various quantities by various brewers, but the gruit is (if you think of it as a separate ingredient group) still in there, mostly.

I’m not sure Witbier is a Gruit. Yes it has spices (mostly Coriander and Bitter Orange Peels), but it is usually bittered with a noble hop like Hallertauer. I believe a gruit contains no hops at all.

Unibroue’s Blanche De Chambly is also a nice Belgian style wit.
