Witbier 4.5 º 18 IBU

LA PIÈCE

This modern take on a Witbier emphasizes raw, local malt character and a distinctive dry-hopped profile over traditional spicing. Moby Kid presents a bright, citrus-forward sensory experience, trading the usual coriander and orange peel for vibrant fruit aromas derived from dry hops. The 100% local malt base provides a solid bready and grainy foundation, while the absence of spices allows the clean, fruity esters to shine. Unlike its sweeter historical counterparts, this version is notably dry and carries a more pronounced bitterness, resulting in a crisp, refreshing finish that highlights the intersection of Belgian tradition and contemporary hop focus.

Appearance. Very pale straw with a distinct milky, whitish-yellow cloudiness from suspended yeast and wheat proteins. Features a dense, moussy, persistent white head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring bready, grainy malt and a notable citrus-hop presence. In place of traditional spices, the aroma is dominated by zesty lemon and grapefruit notes. Low fruity esters are present, but the profile is clean of coriander or peppery phenols.

Taste. Initial bready malt sweetness is quickly overtaken by a zesty, citrusy hop flavor. The absence of spices creates a focused profile where the grainy wheat character shines. The bitterness is moderate—higher than the style average—leading into a bone-dry, crisp finish without any lingering harshness or astringency.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture from the wheat. High carbonation provides an effervescent, prickly sensation on the tongue. There is no alcohol warmth, making it highly refreshing.
