🌍 United Kingdom · Witbier · One of 41 Witbiers in hopIQ

Blanche is Burning Sky Brewery's take on the classic Belgian witbier tradition, brewed in Firle, United Kingdom. This East Sussex interpretation pours a hazy, pale straw gold with a pillowy white head that lingers invitingly. The aroma is zesty and aromatic, offering bright citrus peel, fresh coriander, and delicate floral notes characteristic of the Belgian wheat beer style. On the palate, it is refreshingly light-bodied with a soft, creamy wheat character underpinning subtle spice. The carbonation is lively, enhancing its thirst-quenching quality. The finish is clean and gently dry, with a lingering hint of orange zest and white pepper. A beautifully crafted, approachable witbier that honours its Belgian inspiration while carrying unmistakable British craft sensibility.

About Witbier

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Witbier?

Witbiers are Belgian white ales brewed with unmalted wheat, 4.5–5.5% ABV. Hazy and refreshing with citrus peel, coriander spice and a soft creamy body.

Finding a similar Witbier

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Blanche

Serve at 5–8°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

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
Recommended for this style

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.
