WHO GIVES A WIT?
We do and it’s not rude. Based on a traditional Belgian wit (white) beer, we’ve added the bergamot and lemon zest of Earl Grey tea for a well turned out beer that politely packs a punch.

Bottle from Booths, Clitheroe. Straw-blonde wit a very thin head. Decent witbier, similar to Hoegaarden, with plenty of citrus in its nose.

On tap at the Perseverance, Lambs Conduit Street. A hazy pale straw pour with a thin white head; fresh lemony aroma; soft berry fruit taste with a slightly chalky body; and a dry, refreshing finish. A pleasant Wit, on the first proper day of summer.

Bottle at the Purple Turtle, Reading. It’s a very pale yellow with virtually no head. It’s a bit thin, fizzy and watery up front. The main flavour is lemonade with some floral hints. There’s a little grass and ginger too. Light banana comes through in the aftertaste which leaves a slight creaminess in the mouth, losing the crispness and refreshment that I was seeking on this surprisingly hot spring evening. I’m not normally a fan of Belgian-style wheat beers, but despite a few faults (largely in the mouthfeel), this is a tasty enough beer that I quite enjoyed.

Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Opaque, lemon squash colour. Tight, bright, white head. Bit of lemon. A bit yeasty. Some cereal. Some clove, and what have you. Taste is dry, and squeeze of lemon tart. Thin, oddly greasy palate. A bit watery. Finish is short dry. Smells good. Looks great...

Medium white head. Hazy pale yellow body. Fruity mealy coriander aroma, clean and straightforward. Dry coriander and fruit taste with floral mealy mint notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft, mealy, slightly flat mouthfeel. Dryish herbal coriander aftertaste with mealy wheaty notes. It’s not bad at all, but a bit anonymous. (0.33l bottle, from Waitrose Canary Wharf, London.)

Hazy blond colour. Aroma is citrusy and a bit soapy. Fresh and zesty taste. The lemon is definitely noticeable. Quite sweet at first with a little bitterness in the finish.

Keg, Liverpool Craft Beer Expo, Camp & Furnace. Hazy yellow looks with a small white head. Banana and clove notes in the nose. Flavour was a little sweet and has some juicy citrus and spice alongside wheat and yeast notes. Full smooth mouthfeel. For some reason far better than anticipated. A tasty interpretation of the style.
