Flötzinger Hefe-Weißbier hell

◎ Appearance

Pours a pale gold with a cloudy, hazy suspension from bottle conditioning. The yeast-laden cloudiness gives the beer a characteristic opaque appearance. Effervescence is brisk and lively, with fine bubbles that support a pillowy white head with moderate retention.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with prominent banana esters typical of wheat beer fermentation, complemented by a gentle spice note of clove from the yeast character. Behind these fruity and spicy elements sits a soft, bready maltiness that grounds the aroma without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and lightly fruity, with the banana character carrying through the mid-palate alongside the bready, grainy wheat base. Bitterness is restrained at 12 IBU, allowing the delicate yeast-derived flavours and subtle sweetness to remain in focus. The full body and crisp carbonation maintain freshness throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshing, with carbonation brightening the aftertaste. The banana and clove notes fade gently, leaving behind a dry, bready impression.

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.
