Karmeliten Weizen Hell
Fruity and lively: banana from the top-fermenting yeast leads the aroma, and the palate brings the sweetness and fruitiness of summer fruits with a light acidity and soft sweetness. Deep yellow with a strong yeast haze, 5.4% ABV from 12.6% Stammwürze. Wheat malt makes up more than 70% of the grist, and the beer ferments in the bottle in the traditional way.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Karmeliten Weizen Hell
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.
