Ebeltoft Weissbier

Tap to rate

Golden and pleasantly hazy under a creamy white head that lingers, this wheat beer is fruity with hints of apricot, banana and citrus. It is gentle and lightly malted, certainly not very bitter, yet refreshing and thirst quenching. Following the German model it is brewed with more than 50 percent wheat, and the delicate, mild bitterness comes from Mittelfrüh hops. Peder Zacho Hansen draws his greatest inspiration from German traditions, and the Weisse has been a regular in the range since 2014.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Ebeltoft Weissbier

◎ Appearance

A golden pour beneath a creamy white head that clings to the glass with notable persistence. The body is pleasantly hazy, displaying the characteristic cloudiness of an authentic Hefeweizen. Bright and inviting, with fine carbonation visible throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright fruity esters—ripe banana and apricot are immediately apparent, complemented by subtle citrus notes. Soft clove phenolics emerge from the weizen yeast character, adding gentle spice without dominating. The Malz base is delicate and understated, allowing the yeast-driven aromatics to lead.

◐ Taste

Smooth and refreshing on the palate, with wheat providing a supple, clean foundation. Fruity esters continue from the nose—banana and subtle apricot persist—balanced by soft, almost imperceptible bitterness from the Mittelfrüh hops. The finish remains gentle and thirst-quenching, never astringent or heavy.

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.
