Floris Wit is an exceptionally sessionable Witbier that prioritizes bright, citrus-driven refreshment. It presents a vibrant bouquet of zesty lemon peel and sweet orange, supported by a soft, grainy malt backbone featuring unmalted wheat and cereal notes. Delicate sweet spices and peppery coriander integrate seamlessly with the fruity yeast esters, creating an aromatic profile that is both airy and complex. On the palate, it delivers crisp citrus flavors and a gentle bready sweetness. The finish is remarkably clean and dry, while its light body and high effervescence ensure a smooth, creamy, and thirst-quenching experience perfectly suited for warm weather enjoyment.
Appearance.Pale straw to light gold (2–3 SRM). Highly cloudy and opaque with a milky, whitish-yellow haze from starch and yeast. Supports a dense, white, moussy head with moderate retention and light lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity with a clean, zesty profile of lemon peel and citrusy orange. Low bready maltiness with light grainy wheat and cereal notes. Background aromatics include moderate perfumy coriander and a hint of sweet spice. Hop aroma is absent; fermentation esters are subtle and floral.
Taste.Refreshing initial impression of orange-citrus fruitiness and lemon rind. Pleasant bready, grainy malt flavor with a touch of honey-like sweetness. Herbal-spicy flavors, including coriander, are subtle and well-balanced. Hop bitterness is low, supporting a crisp, dry finish with no harsh aftertaste. Aftertaste is clean with a lingering note of citrus zest.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, light creaminess from the wheat. High carbonation creates a lively, effervescent character. Very refreshing with no alcohol warmth or astringency.
