◌ Aroma

Coriander seed dominates the nose with its warm, slightly peppery character, supported by bright notes of orange peel and delicate floral undertones from the elderflower. The four-grain bill contributes a soft, bready maltiness beneath the spice. The overall impression is clean and approachable, with no harsh alcohol heat despite the 6% ABV.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with gentle spice from coriander, followed by a crisp wheat character and subtle citrus notes that maintain freshness throughout. Orange peel and blossom notes unfold mid-palate with a light, clean mouthfeel and minimal bitterness (15 IBU). The grain complexity from spelt and rye adds nuance without heaviness, balancing the herbal spice elements.

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.
