Huber Weisses Leicht
Huber Weisses Leicht carries a hint of banana at just 2.9% ABV. Huber Weisses is the Freising wheat beer whose label once showed St Korbinian's brown bear from the city's coat of arms; some now fondly call it the Weissbär. A high wheat share and the brewery's own yeast shape the family, and the brewing water comes from the brewery's own 106-metre-deep well.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Huber Weisses Leicht
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.
