A wheat beer (pšeničný speciál) at 11.6° Stammwürze. Its refreshing aromas are fruity, with banana and clove most prominent, and the beer is cloudy from the yeast and a high share of wheat. It is unfiltered and unpasteurised. Pšeničný speciál is the brewery's own designation. In 1841 Smetana's uncle Johann Linek was brewer and tenant at the same brewery.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Weizen 11
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.
