Härle Leichte Weisse
After a prickling first sip, the banana of the aroma returns as a fruity note in the mouth, followed by a soft, restrained finish. Velvety golden with firm yet airy foam, 3.1 %. A light wheat beer from the brewery in Leutkirch, whose yeasts are propagated in its own pure-culture plant and which still brews in the brick building from 1897.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Härle Leichte Weisse
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.
