Schöfferhofer Weizen 0,0% Alkoholfrei

Germany·Alcohol-Free Wheat Beer
Tap to rate

An alcohol-free wheat beer at 0.0 % that replaced the earlier 0.5 % Schöfferhofer Weizen Alkoholfrei with a new recipe. The brewery dry-hops it with Cascade, which adds a light citrus edge. It pours pale amber and hazy under a fine, creamy head. Honey, bread and a little banana show in the nose; the palate is clearly sweet, with caramel and banana, before a brief citrus note in the finish keeps it fresh. The body is soft and the carbonation lively.

◐ Taste

Entry is distinctly sweet, with caramel and banana flavors building through the mid-palate. The soft body carries these notes smoothly, allowing the malt sweetness to linger without becoming cloying. A brief citrus note emerges in the finish, providing just enough brightness to keep the beer refreshing and balanced.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink within 4–6 months. Wheat beers are designed to be fresh — the yeast character diminishes with age.
