Silly Blanche
Cloudy white beer at 5% ABV: coriander comes through first, followed by subtle citrus touches of dried orange peel. Brewed with malt, wheat and Hallertau hops. It began in 1990 as Titje, created by brewing engineer Jean-Paul Van der Haegen, a fifth-generation brewer, and now goes by Blanche de Silly.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Silly Blanche
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.
