Edelweiss Hefetrüb
Edelweiss Hefetrüb is the classic Bavarian-style wheat beer from Kaltenhausen, top-fermented from wheat and barley malt and bottle-conditioned so that a fine yeast sediment remains. It pours a hazy, warm gold under a tall, dense white head. The nose brings ripe banana, clove and a whisper of vanilla; the palate is soft and creamy, with a full wheat character, notes of bread and a light bubblegum touch, and a lively carbonation carries a fresh, gently spicy finish.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Edelweiss Hefetrüb
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.
