An alcohol-free wheat beer with less than 0.5 % alcohol, brewed from wheat and barley malt at 6.8 °P and left unfiltered. It is straw-yellow with a firm, fine-pored head; the brewery calls it full-bodied, strong and spicy and presents it as isotonic at 18 kcal per 100 g.

◐ Taste

Entry is mild and smooth with a gentle malt body that carries notes of grain and bread crust. Mid-palate sweetness remains measured and well-balanced by restrained bitterness from the organic hops. The finish is dry and clean, with the low IBU allowing the wheat and barley malt character to remain the focus.
