Hirsch Hefe Weisse

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with a hazy, suspended cloud of yeast throughout. The dense, creamy head rises quickly and clings to the glass with persistent lacing. High carbonation produces fine, continuous bubbles that animate the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent clove and ripe banana—the defining signature of a well-executed Hefeweizen. Beneath sits soft, grainy wheat character with a subtle spicy undertone. No harsh phenolics or solvent notes; the fermentation profile is clean and inviting.

◐ Taste

The palate strikes a balance between the estery banana-clove complexity and a soft, pillowy malt foundation. Wheat brings gentle texture and a hint of bread crust. Bitterness is minimal and restrained, allowing the yeast character to remain the focal point without becoming cloying or heavy.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshing, with the wheat and yeast notes fading gracefully rather than lingering heavily. A light spice lingers briefly on the palate.

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.
