And BenLux is a great place to do just that, as you wash back some of the fancy foods on the menu.

This batch was free of any off diacetyl flavors described on Beeradvocate.com rating site. The Beer Advocate crowd has it at 84 (good), with 564 rating it, while The Bros are slightly higher at 87 (very good).

I followed this round with a safe baseline to compare-- Hoegaarden, which I enjoyed a bit more by comparison, which is consistent with Beeradvocate ratings by the crowd, but not The Bros, who rate Lefebvre's Blanche higher than Hoegaarden.
Of the Blanche, Lefebvre's website explains:
The “Witteke” is a typical beer from the past. It was characteristic for farm-based breweries.
The craft brewers used the best ingredients from their own harvest.
Blanche de Bruxelles owes its natural cloudiness to the presence of
wheat (40%). During the boiling process, natural aromas are added -
coriander and dried orange peel.
You will note its freshness and refinement upon tasting, typical for this extraordinary white beer. The brewing method, which includes the gradual addition of hot water, takes a long time.
Just like all the other beers produced by Lefebvre, this beer is not filtered. If served correctly, it produces a cloudy beer with a white head.
