Een extreem verfrissend witbier. We brouwden het met lekker veel hop en dat geeft die aangename, zachte moutsmaak van de tarwe een lekker lichbittere bite mee. Net als bij klassieke witbier, de IJwit, voegden we ook hier citroen toe. Maar daar bleef het niet bij. Voor een fikse vleug citrus kwam daar ook nog wat grapefruit een hele lading kumquats bij. Dat zijn een soort mini-mandarijntjes waar je ook de schil van kan eten maar die hier vooral zorgen voor een heel licht tropisch karakter. Je hoort het al, dit drinkt gevaarlijk makkelijk weg. Gelukkig is het alcoholpercentage vrij bescheiden zodat je hier wanneer de zon maar schijnt met hele volle teugen van kan genieten.

0.33 l bottle from ’De Bierkoning’, best before January 2017. Minimally hazy, pale golden yellow with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Fruity-grassy, slightly floral and a little herbal aroma of lime, pineapple, lychee, lemongrass and grapefruit. Slightly bitter, fruity-grassy, slightly floral taste of wheat, straw and some citrus, followed by a medium long, moderately dry-bitter and quite grassy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Quite nice, but the aroma is way better than the taste. Nevertheless very pleasant in the heat.
