Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of (512) Wit
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.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for (512) Wit
◎ Appearance
This witbier displays a pale, hazy golden hue characteristic of the style, with excellent clarity that reveals the suspended wheat proteins. A thick, creamy white head forms with excellent retention, and the beer shows vibrant, fine carbonation throughout.
◌ Aroma
The nose presents a delightful blend of citrus and spice, with prominent orange peel and coriander notes dancing alongside subtle clove and herbal undertones. A gentle banana ester from the Belgian yeast weaves through, creating a complex yet approachable aromatic profile that's distinctly witbier in character.
◐ Taste
The palate opens crisp and refreshing with a soft, pillowy mouthfeel from organic wheat that coats the mouth pleasantly. Mid-palate reveals well-integrated coriander and citrus notes with subtle herbal complexity, while the low IBU (14) ensures spice and adjuncts take center stage without hop bitterness overwhelming the delicate balance.
◑ Finish
The finish is clean and dry, with the effervescence carrying the citrus and herbal notes through to a satisfying conclusion. No harsh bitterness lingers—just a bright, refreshing aftertaste that invites another sip.
