This Witbier presents a vibrant and refreshing sensory profile, characterized by its signature hazy, pale straw appearance. The use of unmalted wheat creates a soft, bready foundation with subtle notes of honey and vanilla. Traditional witbier spices lead with a bright, lemony coriander aroma and a zesty orange peel fruitiness that persists from the first sniff through the crisp, dry finish. High carbonation lends an effervescent quality, while the additions of raw grains provide a smooth, lightly creamy mouthfeel. It is a balanced, delicately spiced ale where yeast-derived esters and herbal nuances harmonize perfectly without overwhelming the palate.
Appearance.Very pale straw with a distinct milky-white haze from starch and yeast. Crowning the glass is a dense, white, moussy head with excellent retention and fine lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity of bready malt and grainy wheat aromatics. Features a complex blend of lemony coriander, zesty orange-citrus fruitiness, and a subtle peppery spice. Low herbal hop notes and hints of vanilla or honey may be present in the background.
Taste.Initial bready, grainy malt flavor from the unmalted wheat leads into a moderate zesty orange fruitiness. Herbal-spicy notes, including lemony coriander, are subtle and well-balanced. Hop bitterness is low to medium-low, finishing refreshingly crisp and dry without any harsh aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, light creaminess. High carbonation provides a lively, effervescent character. Very refreshing finish with no detectable astringency or alcohol heat.
