Die Weisse Glutenfrei

Tap to rate

Naturally cloudy, with fine banana notes, a slim body and a pleasant freshness; the aroma is fruity and the carbonation well integrated. A special brewing process gently breaks down the gluten, and only organic raw materials from sustainable Austrian farming go into the kettle. The secondary fermentation in the swing-top bottle adds carbonation and fruit. Brewer Felix Gmachl developed it in 2015 as Austria's first gluten-free organic Weissbier.

Pale golden hue with fine, natural cloudiness from suspension of yeast and wheat proteins. A delicate white head forms with good retention and fine carbonation bubbles visible throughout. The haziness is characteristic of the style and reinforces the unfiltered, organic craft approach.

◐ Taste

Smooth entry with banana and wheat flavors immediately apparent on the palate. The body remains light and crisp, with well-integrated carbonation that enhances refreshment without astringency. Yeasty notes develop in the mid-palate, balanced by restrained bitterness (14 IBU) and a naturally sweet, silky mouthfeel.

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.
