Following the substantial demand for “wittekes” or white beer in the mid-Eighties, we decided to develop our own version of this beer style. We use regional hops from Poperinge, as well as ungerminated wheat and several herbs for the specific identity of this cloudy beer.

Lichtgeel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is wat waterig met iets van citrus en koriander. Gemiddeld bier, er zijn duidelijk betere witbieren.

25 cl Bottle at home. On the balcony in the sun in fact, woohoo! Hazy cool pale golden with white head and lacing. Sweet malts, grains, lot of citrus, lemon, coriander. Bit soapy, grassy, light doughy. Medium sweet, under medium bitter and light tart. Under medium body. Looks good, tastes alright. --- Beer merged from original tick of Watou's Wit Bier (-2016) on 21 Nov 2017 at 17:15 - Score: 6. Original review text: 3.1

Bouteille. Nez de levures fruitées (citron et bananes, léger d’oranges), et épicées (coriandre, léger clou de girofle) et de blé. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen. Goût de levures fruitées légèrement sûres (bananes et citron) avec un moyen goût épicé de coriandre lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi d’un goût de blé légèrement sûr et d’un goût herbeux (foin) ainsi qu’une finale plutôt sèche, très légèrement amère de levures épicées. Arrière-goût moyen-court, légèrement sûr et amer de levures et de blé avec des notes de zeste d’agrumes. [notes 2006]

F: below average, not long lasting C: hazy yellow/golden. A: wheat, citrusy, coriander, malt, yeast. T: low to medium body, average/to higher carbonation, malt, wheat, coriander, banana, some decent bitter grassy tones on the palate, quite watery but for refreshing summer beer it is the advantage only.
