Kapuziner Hefe Leicht
Kapuziner Hefe Leicht is the brand's light wheat beer, brewed to 7.6 °P and carrying about 40 percent less alcohol than the Hefe-Weißbier. It is filled unfiltered straight from the lagering cellar and pours hazy gold. The brewery describes it as slim, lively and pleasantly mild with a malty, top-fermented character. Wheat malt gives it a soft, bready base, while the yeast adds a light touch of banana and clove; carbonation keeps it brisk, and the finish is short and clean.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Kapuziner Hefe Leicht
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.
