Hütt Weissbier Hell

Tap to rate

Hütt Weissbier Hell is a top-fermented wheat beer brewed from barley and wheat malts, which give it a malty, spicy fullness. The brewery's own yeast strain supplies the fruit: ripe banana and pear with a hint of passion fruit, set against soft bready grain and a light clove-like spice. The yeast stays in the bottle, and a gentle swirl before pouring brings up the typical haze. Formerly brewed in Baunatal, it has been made at Rheder in Brakel since late 2025.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe banana and pear, hallmarks of the Hütt yeast strain, followed by a subtle hint of passion fruit that adds brightness. Soft, bready grain notes underpin the fruit, with a delicate clove-like spice emerging in the background. The overall impression is of gentle complexity rather than intensity.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with malty sweetness and the yeast-derived fruit character carries through smoothly. Soft bready grain provides body and substance, while the clove spice adds a gentle peppery note that balances the malt without aggressive bitterness. Low IBU ensures the esters and spice remain in the foreground.

The finish is clean and dry, with the clove spice lingering gently on the palate. A light, grainy aftertaste fades smoothly, leaving no harshness behind.

Serve at 5–8°C

Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.

Weizen glass

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.
