Berg 3-Korn Hefeweizen

◎ Appearance

Deep amber-brown with a ruby hue, the beer presents a distinctly hazy appearance consistent with its Dunkelweizen heritage. The head is substantial and cream-colored, showing good adhesion to the glass with visible lacing as it recedes. Carbonation is moderate and produces fine, persistent bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with warm, spicy phenolics characteristic of wheat beer fermentation—clove and white pepper are prominent. Beneath this lie rich malty notes from the three-grain grist: soft breadiness from wheat and barley, with a subtle nutty undertone from the spelt. A delicate floral note from Tettnanger hops provides gentle balance without dominating.

◐ Taste

The palate enters full and rounded, with the three-grain malt profile delivering both softness and depth. Spelt contributes a distinctive nutty character that sits alongside the bread-forward maltiness of wheat and barley. The 15 IBU contribute only restrained bitterness; instead, the Tettnanger hops offer a subtle floral dryness that keeps the beer from becoming cloying.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-length with a lingering malty sweetness balanced by the gentle hop dryness. The spice notes fade slowly, leaving behind a warm, grainy character that invites another sip.
