🌍 France · Witbier · One of 42 Witbiers in hopIQ

An unpasteurized white beer perfumed with Corsican maquis herbs — strawberry tree (arbousier), myrtle, cistus, and juniper — infused directly in the hopping vat. Light, naturally cloudy, with floral and herbal aromas that evoke the Corsican scrubland. One of the most distinctive terroir beers in France.

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

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same floral, herbal, fruity character as Colomba will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Colomba

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.
