🌍 Germany · Alcohol-Free Wheat Beer · One of 37 Alcohol-Free Wheat Beers in hopIQ

An alcohol-free wheat beer declared at 0.5 %, brewed from wheat and barley malt with top-fermenting yeast. The brewery describes a fruity, aromatic character, a cream-coloured, fine-pored head and a fine scent of banana. Pale and caramel-coloured Franconian malt gives a soft, bready base with a light sweetness, while the hops stay in the background and leave the yeast fruit to lead. It is the alcohol-free counterpart to the bottle-conditioned Weissbier.

A pale golden hue with subtle caramel undertones characteristic of Franconian malt. The head is cream-coloured and fine-pored, displaying excellent retention and forming delicate lacing as it recedes. The body shows good clarity with gentle carbonation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced yeast-derived banana notes, complemented by light wheat character and soft grain sweetness. Noble hop aromatics remain discreet, allowing the top-fermentation character to dominate. A gentle fruity quality emerges without any sharp or solvent-like edges.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and bready with a light sweetness from pale and caramel malts creating a welcoming palate. The mid-palate maintains low bitterness at 14 IBU, with the yeast fruitiness carrying weight while grain character provides a rounded foundation. The finish remains clean and unobtrusive, never cloying.
