Venloosch Wit
A wheat beer brewed from malted barley, wheat and oats, with coriander supplying the spice and a citrus note running underneath. The hopping is mild and the head holds well. Oats are the unusual part of the grist — most witbiers stop at wheat. Bronze at the 2023 World Beer Awards, silver at the 2023 Dutch Beer Challenge and silver at the 2022 London Beer Competition.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Venloosch Wit
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.
