Marble Double White

Tap to rate

Albuquerque's favourite wheat beer. A Belgian witbier with orange peel and coriander — hazy, refreshing and gently spiced. Light enough for the New Mexico summer heat, complex enough to keep drinking. A local institution since 2008.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Marble Double White

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with a pronounced haze from suspended yeast and wheat proteins, characteristic of the Belgian witbier style. A dense, creamy head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass, leaving fine lacework as you drink. Bright carbonation manifests as a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the cloudy body.

◌ Aroma

Citrus notes emerge immediately—candied orange peel dominates the nose, supported by subtle lemon brightness. Beneath lies a gently spiced character from coriander and a soft, wheaten grain base, with faint esters from the Belgian yeast adding a whisper of banana and clove. The overall impression is fresh and inviting rather than heavily aromatic.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a soft, slightly sweet wheat malt entry balanced by restrained noble hop bitterness (12 IBU provides structure without aggression). Coriander and orange peel unfold across the mid-palate, creating a gently spiced, citrusy complexity that avoids harshness. The mouthfeel is light and clean, with enough body to carry flavor without heaviness—ideal for warm-weather drinking.

◑ Finish

The finish is crisp and dry, with the spice lingering briefly and the citrus fading into a clean, grainy aftertaste. No bitter grip; the beer concludes with a refreshing, almost mineral quality that invites another sip.

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.
