Our “Blanche” stands in the tradition of Belgian craftsmanship to produce this special beer. Belgian monks were the first to discover the unique recipe around 1445. The first wheat beers were incredibly sour, therefore the monks started experimenting with orange peel, licorice and coriander from the colony Curacao.

Today the Belgian wheat beers are still brewed in the tradition of the former recipes. The smell of Blanche de Charleroi is reminiscent of oranges, coriander, and pineapple. A champagne-like sparkle and slightly sharp notes enliven the palate. Impressively fine and mild body with a finish accompanied by the fruity flavors.

0.33 l bottle from a random Spanish supermarket. Hazy golden color with foamy white head. Citrus, coriander, banana, yeast and green apple in aroma. Sour citrus and lemon in taste with a bit watery texture and sour finish. Softly carbonated, light bodied. Refreshing brew without outstanding flaws.
