Hvid Synd

Hornbeer
Tap to rate
🌍 Denmark · Blanc · One of 1 Blancs in hopIQ

Hvid Synd means white sin — Blanc is French for white, and the brewery reckons the taste is sinful enough to earn it. A French-style wheat beer, unfiltered and therefore hazy in a whitish gold. The fruit sits clearly up front: citrus, apricot and white peach. At 5 percent, a beer that wears its name more lightly than it sounds.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Hvid Synd

Appearance

Hvid Synd presents a hazy, whitish-gold body characteristic of an unfiltered Blanc. The cloudiness stems from suspended yeast and grain matter, giving the beer an opaque, inviting appearance. A delicate white head forms and fades naturally, leaving modest lacing on the glass.

Aroma

The nose is dominated by bright stone fruit and citrus notes that arrive immediately. Apricot and white peach lead, supported by subtle lemon and orange zest. Beneath the fruit sits a soft, grainy maltiness that frames rather than overwhelms the aromatic profile.

Taste

The palate opens with crisp, fruity sweetness that emphasizes peach and citrus in the entry. Mid-palate remains light and refreshing, with wheat providing structure without weight. Bitterness is restrained and plays a supporting role, allowing the delicate fruit character to remain the focal point throughout.
