Modern Love presents a vibrant, contemporary interpretation of the classic Belgian Witbier. This straw-hued ale leads with a pronounced aromatic bouquet of zesty orange peel and cracked coriander, punctuated by a modern emphasis on stone fruit and bright citrus. The inclusion of unmalted wheat and oats provides a soft, bready malt foundation with whispers of honey. On the palate, a delicate balance of spicy phenolics and sweet citrus notes melds into a creamy yet refreshing profile. Effervescent and crisp, it finishes dry with a lingering hint of spice, capturing a sophisticated interplay between traditional yeast character and heightened fruit-forward aromatics.
Appearance.Very pale straw with a characteristic milky, whitish-yellow cloudiness from starch haze. It features a dense, white, moussy head with excellent retention and thick lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity with a dominant bready, grainy wheat malt character and faint honey-like sweetness. Pronounced aromatics of zesty, citrusy orange peel and lemony coriander are complemented by a complex herbal and peppery spice profile from the yeast.
Taste.Initial impression is refreshingly crisp with a pleasant bready malt flavor. Moderate orange citrus fruitiness is balanced by subtle herbal-spicy coriander. Hop bitterness is low, providing just enough structure to support the fruit and spice without lingering. It finishes quite dry and clean with no harshness.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a notable smoothness and light creaminess from the unmalted grain. High carbonation creates an effervescent, prickly sensation on the tongue. Refreshing and light with no alcohol warmth or astringency.
