CAVE: This is the bottled, 4.2% version. The draft Wadesda Witz, 3.3% goes here: https://brewver.com/beers/733176/Wadesda-Witz
Brasserie de la Senne is tackling a classic: don't say ‘witbier’ anymore, say WITZ! It was missing from our range and from the local craft beer scene: a light, 100% organic Brussels wheat beer that contains no spices! Shocking, don't you think? The fact is that historically, and contrary to popular belief, Belgian wheat beers didn't contain any.
Our wheat beer is called WITZ, and has a straw-blonde color. It has the characteristic haze of this beer style, and its head is white and creamy. The emphasis is on the freshness of the wheat and the roundness of the oats. It develops very floral notes (white fruit tree blossoms) and a slightly lemony and green currant fruitiness. It has, as expected, very little bitterness, but a slight, very refreshing acidity. Liquid spring, in short!

Bottle. Very pale orange with a fluffy white head. Lemon blossom, orange and cracker aroma. Soft wheaty texture before a little sourness and bitterness sweep through along with more citrus and some white pepper. Quite interesting but not too fancy.

Easygoing stuff. Pleasant pale baicuits and wheat flakes, soft yeast expression, slight minerality, mild bitter straw. Very drinkable.

Un arco olfattivo dominato dal frumento. La finezza olfattiva è normale e si prolunga in modo sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido appare velato. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza, con carbonazione persistente. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è di media potenza. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato arrivano note di miele, frumento, frutta secca e agrumi.

Small, quite regular snowwhite head over pale yellow beer with a greenish sheen. Spicy nose, wheat, bit weyish. Very slight wheatacidity, again spicey, and probably drier than most wits. Creamy feel, well carbonated to spritzy, wheatslick. Meritorious in the world of corianderboil wits.

4.2% Witz at the source. It pours hazy golden - blonde with a decent fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, fresh, fragrant, lemon, orange, fragrant, floral, coriander seeds, woodruff and leather. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, pleasing bitterness, minerality, spice, cereal, nuttiness, hay, straw, cracker, quite green, damp herbs and floury wheat bread with a drying finish. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Summer crusher with some depth.
