🌍 Germany · Kristallweizen · One of 9 Kristallweizens in hopIQ

The filtered member of the house wheat family, stripped of its yeast and standing crystal clear and glossy gold in the glass with a fine-pored, creamy, lasting head. Pear and apple rise from the glass as soon as it is lifted. The malt character is intensive, drawing on pale and dark wheat malt alongside pilsner and Munich malt, and the taste is pleasantly sweet, fruity and fresh with banana and citrus behind it. Clarity makes it brisk and lively. Brewed at 11.7 degrees Plato.
