BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse Returns with Fan Favorite Nit Wit White Ale
When searching for classic beer styles, a pint of Nit Wit White Ale from BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse is always a sure bet. Now the brewery that has been brewing since 1996 with locations across the U.S. is set to re-release this beer this week on draft and in 16 ounce cans.
The last time that Nit Wit White Ale was released was three years ago back in 2022. Now BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse is bringing back its most decorated seasonal beer for a limited time beginning on Thursday, April 24th.
Nit Wit White Ale is a Belgian inspired beer that offers up a smooth, bright, and effortlessly crowd-pleasing flavor. This 5 times gold medal-winning Belgian-style witbier is brewed with coriander and orange peel, delivering a refreshing citrus aroma, a smooth wheat character, and a crisp, dry finish that makes every sip go down easy. At just 4.7% ABV and 9 IBUs, Nit Wit is a light, sessionable beer that’s perfect for toasting with friends, kicking off the weekend, or just enjoying the little wins.
Nit Wit leans heavy on the zesty orange and subtle spice, making it a uniquely bright and refreshing white ale that’s perfect for any craft beer fan! And with top honors from the Great American Beer Festival and North American Beer Awards, it’s clear this fan favorite is legendary!
