Blanche de Namur - WIT

Blanche de Namur is an award-winning Wit from Brasserie Du Bocq This fine brew takes its name from the noblewoman of the same name, Blanche came from a Belgian noble family and was married at the age of fifteen to the King of Sweden and Norway The young queen moved to her new home with bag and baggage and took an active part in the government of her kingdom She was the first in a long line of queens who played more than just a representative role alongside their husbands

In her honor, the Belgian brewery Brasserie Du Bocq brews a fine Wit Inspired by the wise queen and her gentle disposition, the brewers have created a beer that delights with its mild character, round taste and the spicy freshness of coriander and orange zest

The blonde beer flows into the glass in a heavily cloudy amber-gold color and is adorned with a dense-pored head Fun fact: Thanks to a phenomenon called colloidal haze, the veil in the beer disappears as soon as it warms up a little A delicate aroma of juicy oranges and freshly harvested coriander leaves rises to the nose and seduces with light malt to the first sip This follows the first impression and scores with fruity acidity, herbal notes and a silky-soft texture
