De Prael Weizen
De Prael's Weizen is a Hefeweizen at 5.4% that tastes of banana and clove, with light citrus tones. The nose carries spice, the fruitiness stays very light, and the soft mouthfeel makes it refreshing. The yeast strain is essential to the particular character of this wheat beer, which is on tap in both the Amsterdam and the Hague taproom.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for De Prael Weizen
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.
