      The Face had three different Ommegang flavors at his store for a tasting (Rare vos, Hennepin). Out of the three this one is third and still really great. A nice foamy head quickly dissipates and leaves the beer behind. A clove scent hits you and mixes well with the orange blossom in the taste. A really really light beer the summer witte really is a great beer year round!
      Ommegang really isn't that far from me and the Face in upstate, NY.  They really are doing something different then most breweries in America with Belgian style beers. In a world of craft IPA's, this company really gives you a good change of pace with interesting styles and flavors.
