Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Paulaner Weißbier Naturtrüb

Aroma

The nose is dominated by classic Weissbier yeast esters, delivering prominent banana and spice aromatics. Complementary notes of clove and fresh bread emerge, while the wheat malt base provides a subtle grainy sweetness without aggressive hop character.

Taste

Entry is smooth and creamy with wheat malt sweetness leading the palate. The mid-palate develops rich yeasty complexity with banana and clove phenolics, while low hop bitterness (14 IBU) keeps the beer refreshing and balanced rather than assertive.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Paulaner Weißbier Naturtrüb

Serve at 5–8°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.

Weizen glass
Recommended for this style

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.
