Kloster Weiße

Tap to rate

Sparkling and fruity, with notes of banana and clove, and a fruity scent with a light yeast note. This top-fermented Bavarian wheat beer is brewed mostly from wheat malt, and its carbonation makes it lively on the tongue. Alongside Kloster-Hell and Export-Hell, it forms the trio of classics that define the Reutberg brewery.

◐ Taste

The palate is crisp and refreshing, with fruity flavors dominating from the first sip—banana and clove emerge immediately, balanced by the soft grain character of wheat malt. The beer drinks smoothly with a light body and restrained bitterness, allowing the fermentation character to shine without overshadowing the underlying malt structure.

Serve at 5–8°C

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

Weizen glass

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.
