Belgian White
Shock Top's Belgian White is a Belgian-style wheat ale built around citrus. Real orange, lemon and lime peels meet a touch of coriander, so the glass leans citrus and orange peel with a spiced edge. It's left unfiltered, which is why it pours naturally cloudy and light golden. The brewery has had it since the brand's 2006 launch, at 5.2% ABV.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Belgian White
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.
