Berg Kristallweizen

◎ Appearance

A bright golden-yellow body with crystal clarity and no haze—a hallmark of the Kristallweizen style. The head forms a fine, persistent foam with good lacing and cling to the glass walls. The carbonation is visibly assertive, with a continuous stream of fine bubbles rising through the bright liquid.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with the characteristic softness of wheat malt and caramel wheat, offering subtle notes of honey and light grain sweetness. Tettnanger Perle hops contribute a delicate floral and herbal backdrop, refined and restrained. A gentle yeast-derived fruitiness—faintly fruity and clean—rounds the profile without dominating.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and slightly sweet from the malt bill, with wheat providing a smooth, creamy mid-palate. The fine carbonation creates a lively prickle across the tongue, enhancing the sensation of freshness. Bitterness is restrained at 14 IBU, allowing the grain character and delicate Tettnanger hop spice to emerge without harshness; the finish dries gently without astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-short and refreshing, with the carbonation lending a crisp fade. A lingering note of wheat malt sweetness and subtle hop spice persists on the palate without heaviness.
