0.5 l bottle from 'OnderNulPuntVijf', bottled in September 2020. Very hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity aroma of lots of grapefruit and a touch of grains. Gently sweet, rather fruity taste of grapefruit, blood orange and light grains, followed by a short, gently bitter, minimally tartish finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very refreshing, really well-balanced, not much left of the Witbier character but the fresh grapefruit really makes up for it. Tasty!
