Voller Weizen
A classic hefeweizen: light and refreshing, and packed with fruity and spicy esters. Esters are products of fermentation, so the fruit and spice here come from the yeast. It is poured mainly on draught, at the brewery's own bar and at other venues, and is listed in the B-Sides tier. The name also appears in the spelling Voller Veizen.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Voller 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.
