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.

25 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with yeast sediments floating around, crispy white and disappearing head.Citrus, coriander, wheat and fruity aroma with a minor yeast note. Fizzy and somewhat thin mouthfeel. Flavour is lemonish and sweet with a soft mouthfeel from the wheat which provides both a feel and flavour smoothness. Somewhat thin finish which seems more citric watery than anything else. Not bad but not good either.6-3-6-3-11=2.9

Bottled. Hazy pale golden colour with big creamy white head, lacing. Aroma is acidic and sour citrus fruit along with wheat and some slight nuts and spices also. Flavour is citrus, yeast, hops, spices and slight nuttyness. A pleasant witbier. Long spicy aftertaste.

Hazy pale yellow color, big cloudy white head. Fruity banana in the nose with light notes of coriander and paper. Refreshing, crisp mouthfeel. Wheaty, light spicey flavor. A bit hoppy finish. Dry short aftertaste. Basic witbier.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy yellow with a creamy white head. The aroma is wheat and citrus. The taste is citrus but also large tons of a rusty metallic like flavor. I’m not a big witbier drinker but this one is drinkable to me.

Bottle. Creamy white excellent mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Fantastic initial hoppy aroma, but it quickly fades away too almost nothing. Very many citrusnotes. Ordinary but nice flavor, light bitter. Oily palate. I like this witt.

Big, fluffy, creamy white head; hazy yellow body. Spicy, wheaty aroma with coriander notes. Taste is watery, spicy citrus with faint coriander notes. Aftertaste is spicy grapefruit. It’s very light and drinkable, but still interesting. (0.25l on tap.)
