Dogfish Head Red and White were a truly exceptional beer. The beer pours out an orange body with a slight off-white head that faded into a thin covering across the top. Bringing the beer to the nose there is a huge whiff of Belgian Wit yeast and coming up behind it were orange peels and coriander with a faint aroma of Pinot Noire. The taste, like the nose, was dominated by the Belgian Wit yeast. However, unlike the nose the taste of Pinot Noire was much more present. Very little fusel alcohol notes were present in both the nose and taste. For being such a high gravity beer it was extremely light on the palate with an extremely refreshing mouth feel. The drinkability of this beer was extremely high. It went down smooth and left me wanting more. My girlfriend and I shared a bottle of this with brunch, some steak and eggs and hash browns. This beer was strong enough to hold up to the steak but also delicate enough not to over power the eggs. It was a wonderful beer to drink and to pair.
