Creemore Springs Witbier

Tap to rate

A Belgian-style wheat beer, hazy and pale in the glass. The yeast does most of the talking in the nose: banana and clove with a touch of citrus over soft wheat. Coriander adds a bright, citrus-adjacent spice on the palate rather than a herbal one, and the wheat brings fresh bread underneath it. The bitterness is slight, just enough to keep the spice in check, and the body stays light and lively. Dry through the finish.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Creemore Springs Witbier

◎ Appearance

Pale straw-yellow, characteristically hazy from the suspended yeast that defines the style. The head is fine and persistent, with good lacing that clings to the glass. Carbonation appears lively and well-integrated throughout.

pale strawhazyfine headpersistent lacing

◌ Aroma

The nose is led by phenolic clove and fruity banana esters—classic witbier yeast signatures. Beneath these sits a soft wheat grain base with a gentle citrus undertone, suggesting both the spice additions and the fermentation character. The overall impression is clean and approachable, with no harsh or solvent-like edges.

◐ Taste

Coriander spice enters bright and citrus-forward on the palate, complementing rather than overwhelming the delicate wheat malt foundation. The bitterness is restrained at 20 IBU, providing just enough grip to balance the spice and prevent sweetness. The body remains light and dry, with a clean, crisp mid-palate that lets the yeast character breathe.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and dry, with lingering clove and a faint wheat note. No residual sweetness or astringency; the aftertaste fades quickly and refreshingly.

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.
