Sweetch

Tap to rate

Sweetch is a Belgian-style witbier built on wheat, with a share of oats that makes it silky on the palate. Orange peel and coriander go into the brew and set the aroma: bright, clean citrus first, then a gentle spice. It is pale, light and smooth, and stays balanced without noticeable bitterness.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus notes from orange peel, followed by a gentle wave of coriander spice that remains restrained and well-integrated. Beneath these aromatics lies a soft, grainy wheat presence with a hint of oat smoothness. There is no harsh phenolics or excess yeast character—just a clean, herbal lift that feels refreshing and approachable.

◐ Taste

The palate enters light and smooth, with the oat component delivering a silky mouthfeel that distinguishes this witbier from grain-forward examples. Citrus and coriander flavors echo from the aroma but remain subtle on the palate, allowing the wheat and oat base to take prominence. Bitterness is minimal and well-mannered, never intrusive, creating a balanced profile that avoids heaviness or cloying sweetness.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately short, with a gentle fade that leaves no lingering harshness or residual sweetness. A faint citrus memory persists briefly before the beer fades to a neutral, quenching conclusion.

Serve at 5–8°C

Serve cold to preserve the delicate citrus and spice aromas. Too warm and the yeast esters become heavy — too cold and the coriander disappears.

Witbier glass

The tall, slender wheat beer glass holds the full 50cl pour and shows off the hazy golden colour. The wide mouth lets citrus and spice aromas drift upward freely.

Best consumed fresh. Citrus and spice notes fade after 3–4 months. Drink within 6 months of packaging.
