Fässla Weizla Hell

Tap to rate

Fässla's pale Weizla is a hefeweizen conditioned in the bottle and left cloudy with yeast. Brewed from 12.4 °P to 5.0 percent, it is lively and fine-bubbled with a soft, almost champagne-like character. The wheat yeast brings ripe banana and clove, joined by a light floral note, fresh bread from the wheat malt and a hint of citrus. A gentle hop bitterness keeps the finish clean, while the fruity aroma of top fermentation stays in the foreground from the first sip to the last.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Fässla Weizla Hell

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a soft, luminous quality characteristic of the style. The beer presents a naturally cloudy appearance from suspended yeast, creating a slightly hazy presentation. Fine, persistent carbonation generates a delicate foam that clings gently to the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with distinctly fruity top-fermentation character—ripe banana and subtle stone fruit dominate, balanced by warming clove spice from the wheat yeast. A light floral undertone weaves through, accompanied by fresh bread notes from the wheat malt and a whisper of citrus zest that adds brightness without assertiveness.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and fruity, with the banana and clove profile carrying naturally into the mid-palate where the wheat malt contributes a clean, slightly grainy sweetness. A restrained noble hop bitterness emerges cleanly in the mid-palate and gently frames the finish, preventing any sense of cloying richness while keeping the fruity top-fermentation character in focus.

◑ Finish

The finish remains crisp and medium in length, with the fruity esters lingering pleasantly into the aftertaste. The gentle hop character and clean fermentation profile leave no harshness, only a refreshing sense of balance.

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.
