Lowlander White Ale

Lowlander White Ale

Brewed with Curaçao orange, elderflower & chamomile.


Refreshing & crisp with a fruity & flowery finish


Barentsz, bears & beer



When Willem Barentsz attempted to navigate the Northeast Passage, his crew fought twin terrors: polar bears and frozen beer. Our white ale, with its refreshing fruity notes, is a tribute to the restless and rugged spirit that kept Barentsz going.

3.9 Good aroma of wheat and citrus. Good taste of elderflower, wheat and citrus. Good light bitterness that fills the whole mouth for a decent while. Good beer. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.
3.4 (Rate 25/12/20) Nearly clear yellow pour with white head; fine retention. Must say that I don't get all the added elements in the aroma, but enjoy it. Fresh, not too sweet, not too sour, not too bitter. OK carbo. Nice ale. (Re-rate 08/12/22) This time bottle 75cl, pouring but hazy yellow with a white head; poor retention (but that might be the glass). Again not so much aroma. But fresh, spicy, and indeed well-balanced taste.
3.5 Veiled golden blonde with an average but persistent foam, fine sparkling and some laces. Malted aromas, wheat, notes of apricot, apple, orange blossom. Taste is fresh and soft at the same time, cereals, loemon, herbal tea, blackcurrant. Not very tart but delicate spicy and fruity palette.
2.9 How: Can. Where: Systembolaget. Appearance: Hazy yellow colour with a white head. Aroma: Malt, citrus, yeast, oranges, spices. Body: Medium body and carbonation. Flavour: Malt, yeast, citrus, spices.
3.0 Blond bier met voldoende koolzuur. Geur hooi, bloesem, citrus. Smaak graan, citrus, bloesem, water. Dun licht droog mondgevoel. Nasmaak citrus, beetje zoet, licht bite. Tja
2.9 Can 33 cl. Pours a paleish, clearish golden with a lacing, white head. Sweet nose of coriander and yeast. Medium body, good balance between tart, fruity and yeasty with citrus and coriander hints. Dry finish. Not so bad for the style - only that it's almost clear. 281020

3.2 Oklar ljusgul med tjockt vitt skum. Doftar kryddigt, lite fruktigt. Smaken söt, lite kryddig. Eftersmaken hyggligt lång med kryddiga lite söta toner av apelsin och kryddnejlika, vattnig och liten beska på slutet.
3.5 Mycket trevligt med kamomill, apelsin och fläder
3.1 Halmgul grumlig vätska med vitt skum. Gräsig och örtig doft. I smak återkommer gräs och ört samt lite citrus och jäst. Kort eftersmak.
3.3 Burk från Systembolaget. Disig gul med ett vitt skum. Dofter av citron, apelsin och örter. Smakinslag av apelsin, blomster, örter, gräs och citronskal. Medelbeska.

3.2 Can, 33 cl. Pleasant witbier, sweet and with some slightly spicy accents. Refreshing, overall on the smooth side.
3.4 Can from Systembolaget, Sweden. Big white head, short lasting. Clowdy yellow color. Nice fruity and hoppy aroma. Big wheat taste with a light citrus taste.
3.4 Saisonig doft. Söt saisonig smak. Kanske lite koriander.
4.3 Bra vete, stor smakbild. Burk
3.4 Canned from Systembolaget Hazy golden. Large, white head. Sweetish and spicy with peppery yeast, orange and clove.
2.7 Simple, légère, facile à boire, un nez un peu faible, très douce en bouche, sans doute un effet de la camomille.
3.6 Geur oke. Smaak lekker maar ietwat snel weg. Uiterlijk mooi.
4.3 Dutch wheat beer purchased at Mercato Metropolitino in Elephant and Castle, London. Cloudy pale gold with a full stark white head. Faint musty aroma of yeast. Sweet and floral to taste, orange, camomile and elderflower are added during brewing making for a subtle botanical flavour. Very gentle lingering bitter medicinal note. Clean and refreshing. Very nice label - ornate pale blue and white Delftware style design surrounding a vast polar bear about to crush a tiny ship.
2.9 Misty straw yellow, good white head. Nose: wheat bread, malt, light phenols. light to medium body. Taste: malty, bready, phenolic, spicy, some hop. Light bitterness. Not impressive.
3.5 Bottle. Pale golden color with thick white head. Aroma of chamommile, oranges, peel. Taste, solid malty base overlapped by strong oranges, chamomille, peel, honey, spices, Belgian yeast. Good one. Not easy drinkable beer, till enjoyable tough.
4.5 Bière rafraîchissante, agréable à boire.
2.5 Helder lichtgeel bier met schuim. Smaak is vrij zoet en licht kruidig met iets van sinaasappel en bloemen. Verder vrij vlak van smaak. Ik vind het al met al tegenvallen.
