Witbier 4.7 º

Pipeworks Brewing Company

This playful Witbier reinvents the Belgian classic with a sharp, culinary twist. A foundation of pale barley malt and unmalted wheat provides a soft, bready backdrop for the addition of amchoor, which contributes a bright, tangy acidity reminiscent of unripe mango. Traditional citrus peels and a blend of exotic spices create a complex, perfumy layer that dances between zesty orange and a subtle, peppery sting. Refreshingly light at 4.7% ABV, it finishes remarkably dry and crisp, with the unique spice profile providing a lingering, mischief-filled intrigue that elevates the sensory profile beyond a standard summer wheat ale.

Appearance. Very pale straw with a milky, whitish-yellow opacity from starch haze and yeast. It features a dense, white, moussy head with excellent retention and delicate lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring grainy, bready wheat and light honeyed malt. High citrus aromatics from citrus peels blend with the unique earthy, tart fruitiness of amchoor. Background notes of peppery coriander and floral, exotic spices provide complexity without overpowering the fermentation esters.

Taste. Initial impression is crisp and refreshing. Bready, grainy malt flavors lead into a zesty orange-citrus core. The amchoor provides a distinct, slightly acidic tang akin to green mango. Subtle herbal-spicy notes and a light peppery sting from exotic spices provide depth. Bitterness is low, serving only to balance the malt, leading to a bone-dry, clean finish with no harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture from the wheat. High carbonation provides an effervescent, lively sparkle. No noticeable alcohol warmth; refreshing and free of any astringency.
