Flensburger Weizen
Flensburger Weizen is the brewery's unfiltered wheat beer. It no longer appears on the German website but is still sold abroad, including in the United States. It is brewed with wheat and barley malt. Tasting notes describe a hazy golden-amber to orange beer with a white head. The nose brings banana, clove and further yeast spice alongside bready wheat; the palate adds a hint of honey and sweet malt. The body is medium and creamy, and the finish turns tart and dry.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Flensburger 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.
