Bridge Road Hefeweizen
A German-style wheat beer that traces back to the founder's brewing years in Austria, made with ingredients sourced from Germany including a yeast strain from a long-established German brewery. It pours cloudy under a thick head. Banana and clove dominate the aroma, as the yeast dictates, over a soft, bready wheat base. Bitterness is almost absent, the texture smooth, the close gently sweet.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Bridge Road Hefeweizen
Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.
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.
