Revelry's Bavarian-style Hefeweizen — 5% ABV, unfiltered wheat body with proper Weissbier yeast delivering banana-and-clove aromatics, low bitterness. The wheat slot in a lineup dominated by hop-forward and lager styles. Charleston humidity was made for this beer — extra-refreshing, no gimmick.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Revelry Hotel Rendezvous

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a slight haze characteristic of an unfiltered wheat beer. The head forms quickly and retains well, leaving delicate lacing on the glass. Fine carbonation supports a soft, creamy collar that speaks to proper conditioning.

pale goldenhazygood head retentionfine carbonation

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by distinct banana esters and spicy clove notes from the Weissbier yeast strain. Soft wheat grain underpins the fruity aromatics, with no hop character—just clean, yeast-driven complexity. The overall impression is floral and gently spiced rather than aromatic.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with ripe banana and subtle clove, balanced by soft wheat malt sweetness. Bitterness is minimal at 14 IBU, allowing the yeasty fruitiness to take center stage. Mid-palate texture is smooth and slightly creamy, finishing with a dry, crisp snap that invites the next sip.

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.
