Mediterranean Weissbier
Althaia's take on the classic Bavarian Weissbier is brewed from wheat and barley malt with a special yeast. It pours pale yellow and lightly hazy under a dense, persistent white head. The nose shows crisp banana and clove with a subtle, clean freshness. Medium-bodied with a very soft entry, it is refreshing, carries the fruity character typical of the style and ends with a gentle acidity. The brewery recommends it with salads, white fish, seafood from the Costa Blanca, sausages and mild goat's cheese.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Mediterranean Weissbier
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.
