Hefeweizen·Germany·5.5% ABV·One of 370 Hefeweizens in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Weissbier's clove and banana-y character. Banana and clove are the plan here: 60 % wheat malt, the mashing regime and a steered fermentation tune this Weissbier to exactly those two aromas. Light, fresh and spritzy, with Hallertau Tradition and Hersbrucker hops in the background. Left natural and unfiltered; 5.5 % ABV from 12° Plato. The hop varieties are printed on the label.
