Kapuziner Hefe Dunkel

◎ Appearance

Dense mahogany brown, opaque and full-bodied in the glass. A firm, fine head sits atop the unfiltered body, showing good retention and lacing. The cloudiness from suspension of yeast and malt particles is characteristic of the style and contributes to its visual richness.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens gently with roasted malt and caramel sweetness, grounded by soft toasted notes from darker grains. A light nutty edge emerges alongside subtle wheat character, while hints of banana and spice suggest the work of wheat beer yeast. The aromatic profile is rounded and inviting rather than assertive.

◐ Taste

The palate enters lively and develops into a full, rounded body where wheat malt and caramel lead the composition. A subtle banana note threads through the mid-palate, accompanied by faint background spiciness and a soft roasted grain foundation. Bitterness remains low throughout, allowing the malty sweetness to define the overall impression.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and mildly sweet, with a soft roasted note lingering pleasantly on the palate. The aftertaste remains clean and balanced, without harshness or astringency.
