Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Litovel Pšeničné pivo

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with characteristic haze from suspended yeast and wheat proteins. A dense, cream-colored head forms readily and clings to the glass with good retention. Fine carbonation creates a lively, effervescent presentation throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced wheat grain and soft, bready maltiness. Prominent clove and banana esters from the weizen yeast create a distinctly fruity and spiced character. Light herbal notes from noble hops complement without overshadowing the yeast-driven aromatics.

◐ Taste

Wheat malt provides a smooth, grainy foundation with subtle sweetness on the entry. Mid-palate reveals familiar clove and banana character balanced by a light, peppery spice. Bitterness remains restrained at 14 IBU, allowing malt and yeast phenolics to dominate; the finish drinks clean and refreshing without astringency.

◑ Finish

Short to medium finish with a gentle fade. Lingering notes of grain and subtle spice persist without becoming dry or cloying.

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.
