Linzer Witbier
A modern regional reading of the Belgian wheat beer style, brewed with wheat malt and wheat flakes, with organic lavender, camomile and coriander, plus fresh citrus notes from Mühlviertel Saphir hops and a mild banana aroma. The body is creamy and light. It is top-fermented and was presented at the Witbierbangeln in the Sandburg Linz on 1 July 2025.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Linzer Witbier
Serve cold to preserve the delicate citrus and spice aromas. Too warm and the yeast esters become heavy — too cold and the coriander disappears.
The tall, slender wheat beer glass holds the full 50cl pour and shows off the hazy golden colour. The wide mouth lets citrus and spice aromas drift upward freely.
Best consumed fresh. Citrus and spice notes fade after 3–4 months. Drink within 6 months of packaging.
