Herbsthäuser Kristall-Weizen

◎ Appearance

Crystal-clear pale gold, brilliant and transparent in the glass. The fine-bubbled carbonation generates a dense, pillowy white head that holds with steady presence. Clean, bright appearance characteristic of the Kristallweizen style.

◌ Aroma

Delicate and restrained on the nose, with prominent banana esters offering a subtle fruity sweetness. Soft wheat notes provide a gentle, bready undertone without aggression. The overall aromatic profile is clean and approachable, with no harsh phenolics or spice.

◐ Taste

Crisp and smooth entry dominated by wheat malt character and complementary banana notes. The mid-palate is clean and light, with a refreshing quality enhanced by fine carbonation. Mild bitterness (14 IBU) provides subtle balance without asserting itself, allowing the grain and yeast character to remain central.

◑ Finish

Short to medium finish with lingering wheat and subtle banana on the palate. The aftertaste remains clean and slightly dry, fading gracefully without residual sweetness.
