Fiedler's Weißbier is top-fermented and cloudy with yeast, aromatic with a fruity character (5.2 % ABV, 12.5 °P). It is refermented in the bottle the traditional way. The beer comes from the family brewery in Scheibenberg in the Ore Mountains, where the Fiedlers have been brewing since the middle of the 19th century, to the German purity law.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Fiedler Weißbier

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a soft, hazy veil from its native yeast sediment. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Gentle carbonation creates a lively sparkle beneath the cloud.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced wheat malt and a distinctive spiced character—clove and white pepper emerge from the Hefeweizen yeast strain. Ripe fruit notes of banana and subtle stone fruit follow, with a clean fermentative quality that remains refreshing and never solvent-like.

◐ Taste

The palate is soft and approachable, leading with wheat malt sweetness balanced by low, grainy bitterness. Banana and clove develop across the mid-palate, complemented by a slight peppery snap. The 5.2% ABV keeps the body light and drinkable, with restrained hop presence allowing yeast expression to dominate.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately brief, fading from yeasty fruit into a dry, slightly grainy fade. A gentle clove pepperness lingers on the palate.

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.
