Witte Dame

◎ Aussehen

Witte Dame presents a golden-blond hue with a characteristic soft haze from suspended yeast and wheat proteins, typical of the witbier style. The head is fine and creamy, settling into a delicate collar around the glass rim. Bright carbonation supports an inviting, gently cloudy presentation that catches light with a luminous quality.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a pronounced citrus character—lemon zest and dry orange—immediately complemented by a distinctive phenolic spice from coriander and the mild clove-like notes typical of witbier yeast. A subtle banana ester threads through the background, adding fruity softness without dominating, while wheat rounds out the aromatics with a gentle grain bed.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is light and refreshing, with citrus leading on the palate before coriander spice develops in the mid-palate with a dry, almost peppery grip. Banana fruit emerges as a balancing sweetness, while the wheat base provides a soft, smooth mouthfeel that prevents harshness. Low bitterness (15 IBU) keeps the beer approachable and clean, allowing spice and fruit to finish without astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish is short to medium, drying cleanly as the coriander spice lingers briefly on the palate. A light, refreshing aftertaste leaves the mouth crisp and ready for the next sip, with no heavy residue.
