This Witbier offers a vibrant, summery profile characterized by its hazy, refreshing nature. The sensory experience is led by a bright bouquet of citrus and lime, which sharpens the senses against a background of soft, bready wheat malt. Intricate layers of vlierbloesem provide a delicate floral sweetness, while coriander contributes a subtle, peppery spice. Uniquely, hints of banana emerge, adding a creamy fruit depth. The palate is balanced by the smooth texture of unmalted wheat, leading into a crisp and effervescent finish. It leaves a lingering trail of zest and floral notes that make it exceptionally approachable and cooling.
