Very crisp mouthfeel.

A sharp texture drives the beer — a clean, direct pour with room for the palate to fill in.

Wider bands mean we're less certain about the exact position.

Pale straw to pale golden in color with bright, translucent clarity. A fine, persistent white head forms readily and holds with good Schaumhaftung. The beer displays lively carbonation that sustains throughout the pour.

Aroma

The nose opens with soft wheat and subtle yeast character derived from the fermentation profile. Coriander and orange peel aromatics emerge clearly, lending a gentle spice and citrus lift without dominating. A delicate floral undertone rounds the bouquet, characteristic of the witbier tradition.

Taste

The palate enters clean and refreshing, with the wheat base providing a smooth, slightly creamy mouthfeel. Coriander and orange flavors integrate throughout the mid-palate, balanced by restrained spice and a light citrus snap. Bitterness remains low and unobtrusive, allowing the adjunct character to shine without harshness.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of White Owl Spark

Serve at 5–8°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

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
Recommended for this style

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.
