Wieninger Weißbier Dunkel

◎ Appearance

A nut-brown hue with yeast cloudiness throughout, giving the beer a soft, diffused appearance. The head forms dense and persistent, with good adhesion to the glass walls. Carbonation is visibly lively, evidenced by a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe banana fermentation character, a signature note of the wheat yeast strain used. Beneath this, toasty and grainy elements emerge—caramel sweetness, hints of toasted bread, and a whisper of cocoa provide depth. Spalter hops remain subdued, contributing only a gentle herbal undertone without asserting themselves.

◐ Taste

The palate opens full and smooth, with the wheat malt contributing a soft, creamy foundation. Mid-palate balances fruity banana notes against toasty grain and mild cocoa character; caramel sweetness adds body without cloying. Bitterness is remarkably restrained at 11 IBU, allowing the malt-driven profile to dominate throughout.

◑ Finish

The finish is mild and grain-led, tapering gently with a lingering cereal-malt sweetness. No sharp edges or astringency; the aftertaste remains clean and approachable.

Serve at 7–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

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.
