KATHMANDU: Yak Brewing Co has announced its new craft beer, 'Barahsinghe Belgian Style Witbier', just in time for the festivities of Dashain and Tihar.

This Belgian-style wheat beer is made from German malted wheat, malted barley, hops, yeast, coriander, and orange peel, as per a press statement.

It's a light and refreshing beer with fruity and spicy notes and low hop bitterness. The Barahsinghe Belgian Style Witbier features a pale and cloudy appearance due to the presence of unfiltered yeast in the beer.

Spiced with coriander seeds and orange peel, the fruity and spicy notes enhance both the flavour and aroma, making it the ideal beer to enjoy on any occasion. The Barahsinghe Belgian Style Witbier is the latest in a diverse lineup of craft beers from Yak Brewing Co, bringing the total number of craft beer varieties to six. The new craft beer will be available in 330ml bottle and on draft in selected stores around Kathmandu valley.
