Dogfish Head Namaste

20160814:*
This beer had a banana, coriander sort of smell. It had a cloudy, yellow appearance. It had a strong carbonation.


After tasting some of my friends' drinks, I returned to the Namaste and the carbonation was still strong. I found it had a wheat taste. Furthermore, unlike the smell, the beer lacked a banana taste. 5:55PM PT

*It's likely I've had this beer before, but I'm unable to hunt down any old notes on it.

Our Belgian-style white ale bursting with good karma

A witbier bursting with good karma. Made with dried organic orange slices, fresh-cut lemongrass and a bit of coriander, this Belgian-style white beer is a great thirst quencher.

Namaste was originally brewed at our pub in Rehoboth Beach with our Italian friend Leo from Birra del Borgo. It was a tribute to our friends at 3 Fonteinen brewery in Belgium, who had devastating production loss (1/3 of their annual production) in 2009. You can read more about the original brewing of this beer here on Sam's blog.
