🌍 Germany · Hefeweizen · One of 210 Hefeweizens in hopIQ

The brewery's classic Bavarian wheat beer, fermented with a top-fermenting yeast it cultivates in-house. Besides wheat and barley malt, the grist includes a share of spelt malt, all from organic farms. Dense clouds of yeast give the golden beer its typical haze. The aroma is fruity, with ripe banana, apricot and a touch of lemon over a hint of clove. The palate is rounded and soft, carried by a mild yeasty note and lively carbonation. Original gravity is 12.5 °Plato.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Bio Weiße

◎ Appearance

Golden and distinctly hazy, with dense yeast suspension creating an opaque appearance characteristic of the style. A thick, pillowy white head forms and clings to the glass with good retention, leaving distinct lacing on each sip. Lively carbonation is evident throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with prominent ripe banana and stone fruit—apricot and lemon notes—supported by a subtle clove spice typical of Bavarian wheat beer fermentation. The yeasty foundation is soft and bready, without any phenolic sharpness, creating a balanced and inviting bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and rounded, with the banana and clove notes from the nose carrying through cleanly. Mild yeasty sweetness dominates the mid-palate, while the wheat malt adds a gentle, slightly grainy backbone. Lively carbonation lifts the structure without harshness, and minimal bitterness allows the fruit and spice to remain in focus.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Bio Weiße

Serve at 5–8°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.

Weizen glass
Recommended for this style

Tall and narrow at the base, flaring at the top — designed to hold the abundant foam of a wheat beer while showcasing its hazy golden body.

Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
