Belgian-style wheat beer with complex yeast character and aromatic spices. An appealingly crisp, dry, and refreshing alternative to generic warm-weather lawnmower beer.
Literally, "white beer," this Belgian wheat beer got its name because of its cloudy haze (it's actually straw-gold in color). The smooth mouthfeel, grainy flavor, and massive head retention of wheat malt meets dry and phenolic Belgian witbier yeast. Adding the tart, enticing character of coriander and bitter orange peel makes this beer very complex and delicate.
I brewed this before with and without kveik yeast. I added a pound of honey. Drinkable in two weeks. At parties it’s the first one gone. Very happy with this kit.

Great beer!
As a novice Brewer, I really appreciate the Northern Brewer beer kits. The instructions easy to follow and the final product was excellent!

My summer light drinking ale
Whether cooking or brewing I never seem to stick with the recipe (except for my first IPA). For this Witbier, I added some vanilla and lavender. It ended up smooth with a lot of layers, with a nice drinkable 4.2 abv. , perfect for drinking on a hot summer afternoon before during and after the yard work.

Great first Witbier
Really good, straightforward recipe. Aroma, color and taste are all spot on. The coriander and bitter orange is such a nice addition. Hit OG and FG. Definitely will brew this again and it might become a regular in my kegerator.
