Heineken Witpils: A Fusion of Two Beer Styles

Heineken introduces Witpils, an innovative creation from Heineken Studio that brings together two classic beer styles. This unfiltered beer combines the refinement of a pilsner with the characteristic softness of a wheat beer, creating a unique experience for beer enthusiasts.

The brew is carefully crafted with pilsner malt and wheat malt as its foundation, fermented with Heineken's proprietary A-yeast. Citrahop adds a fresh dimension, while citrus peel and coriander seed provide additional flavor layers. The unfiltered character preserves the natural richness of the beer intact.

According to Master Brewer Willem van Waesberghe, the combination of wheat malt and Citrahop is essential to Witpils' soft and rich character. The addition of coriander seed contributes a spicy note that beautifully bridges both beer styles. This beer is ideal for drinkers seeking to explore refined and nuanced flavors.
