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.

330 ml bottle. Pours a light lemon yellow with moderate head and lots of carbonation. Aromas of coriander and lemon polish. Flavors of lemon and grain/wheat. More like a heavily carbonated lemon soda. light but refreshing.

25cl bottle from Vanuxeem. Very thin taste for a wit, cloudy light yellow appearance with cat piss aroma. Slight white wine with some limited spices and a distinct lager taste. Very disappointing. Have a feeling this might have a fresher, fuller taste direct from the brewery.

Bottle, 250ml for 273 yen from Ohtsuki at 5%. A cloudy straw gold color with an orange & coriander aroma. The taste is classic witbier, sweet & spicy-orange & spices. Not all that complex but a solid white beer at a great price.

25cl bottle. leicht trübe Farbe, typischer Witbier-Geruch. Der Antrunk ist witbiertypisch trocken-säuerlich, ganz leicht weich-süßlich. Zum Hauptteil kommt eine mild-weiche Note dazu, insgesamt aber recht wenig Körper. Der Nachgeschmack ist mittellang, mild-weich und witbiertypisch säuerlich mit leicht herber Note und leichter hefiger Vollmundigkeit --> ganz nettes Witbier, es gibt aber charakteristischere und körperreichere Vertreter.

25 cl. bottle @ Kulminator. BBF 08/2010 – so maybe 2008 Vintage? Don’t think that this should have been aged but that I maybe just me. Although the reviews below me describe taste about as “pleasant” if not worse than what I had. Pours the clearest and brightest apple golden beer I have ever seen, bubbles rising, okay touch fake looking creamy white head. Nose is sweet in lemonade kind of way, artificial sweetener, apple, light coriander and children’s vitamins + Dafalgan. Taste is artificial sweetener, coriander, Dafalgan, sweet citrus, aspirin, children’s vitamins, apple lemonade, watery coriander in the back. Very effervescent – yeah. Not too terrible but very chemical & bit like taking your vitamins.

250ml bottle from Drinkswell, Ripon. Hazy pale yellow colour, thin creamy white head and aroma of yeast, lemon & banana. Light watery mouthfeel, taste of malt & wheat, some yeast. Initial sweetness followed by sour notes, through to a spicy dry citrus finish. Fizzy high carbonation level. Quite OK.
