Unibroue -- Blanche De Chambly

Unibroue's Blanche de Chambly is a Belgian Witbier styled ale that is supposed to have flavors or "wheat and subtle spices blanketed in citrus flavors reminiscent of orange and lemon."
 5% ABV, and 10 IBU's

Reveiw:
This beer is supposed to be light gold and hazy with light zesty flavors and aromas. Look at the picture above! Even in this low light situation you can see that this beer is nowhere near golden. It smelled very old and had chunks of hops floating in the beer. The taste was not zesty or light. Something went very wrong with this batch of beer. I'd blame age, but no matter how old this beer was, there shouldn't be solid chunks of hops floating around! 
(You can actually see 2 chunks in the picture above -- black spot in the top right of glass and black spot 1/3 of the way up and just right of center.)

This is the first beer beer I've reviewed that will get an F. 
Unibroue: Wake up! Bad brewing process here. 
Grade: F
