A full-bodied, Amsterdam wheat beer that is dangerously ‘moreish’. Slightly cloudy, it has a beautiful golden colour and a soft, foamy head. When we brew IJwit, we use wheat malt as well as barley malt, which is also how the beer gets its name.
The wheat malt gives the beer a delightful, fresh flavour, and the addition of coriander and lemon during the brewing process produces a rich aroma of banana, citrus and spices. Topped off by a fine, slightly sweet aftertaste, IJwit is a delicious thirst-quencher.

Draught @ the brewpub, Amsterdam. Pours slightly hazy pale straw with airy white head. Clear aroma of malt and banana, with estery touches. Bitter flavour of hops, with sourish, grainy touches, peppery hints, and mild touches of banana and malt. Bitter and estery aftertaste. Acceptable but nothing extraordinary.
