A fresh, unfiltered brew perfect for lazy summer days. Our Wahoo White is brewed with unfiltered, un-malted wheat and oats that give it a distinctive cloudy complexity. True to the Belgian tradition, this Witbier boasts a refreshing, citrusy flavor thanks to the orange peel and coriander we add to the boil. This makes Wahoo an ideal beer for year-round beach weather.

Bottled@Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Slightly hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is wheat, fruits, some mild tartness as well. Flavour is quite much the same. A rather nice witbier, which would very well manage comparing to it’s Belgian likes.

Palate: Light-medium body, very drinkable

Bottle of questionable dating: White grape and babyfood nose. Milky yellow with a thin vanishing white head. Thin body, but carbonation is fine. Wheat malt flavor dominant with a tartness that isn’t exactly citrus or spice. Mild cardboard finish. Drinkable, but possibly too old. This sample was a poor representation of the style.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a frothy white head over a hazed golden body. Aroma of citrus, wheat, spice and CO2. Taste is wheat, light rye, citrus, coriander, pepper and orange peel. Fizzy carbonation and a dryish mouthfeel.
