Witte Simmie
Orange peel and lemongrass in the aroma, then a soft, fresh taste with light malty sweetness, subtle spicy tones and citrusy hop aromas, and a light, fresh finish. A 5.2% witbier brewed with barley and wheat malt and Cascade hops, named after Simcoe, the brewery dog, who had starred in several one-off beers before.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Witte Simmie
Serve cold to preserve the delicate citrus and spice aromas. Too warm and the yeast esters become heavy — too cold and the coriander disappears.
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.
