St. Wolfgang Leichte Weisse

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow hue with a hazy, turbid character from suspended yeast. A dense, creamy head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine lacing. Moderate carbonation creates gentle, persistent bubbles throughout the body.

◌ Aroma

Wheat yeast dominates with a gentle banana note, balanced by a subtle clove spice characteristic of Hefeweizen fermentation. The rye contributes a light, bready grain aroma that grounds the profile without overpowering. Overall impression is soft and approachable, with minimal hop presence.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and clean, with the wheat malt providing a slightly creamy mouthfeel despite the low alcohol. Mild banana and faint clove from the yeast blend with light bready notes from the rye, creating a rounded flavor profile. Bitterness remains gentle and restrained, allowing the malt and yeast character to lead.

◑ Finish

Crisp and short, with a clean, refreshing exit that does not linger. A touch of gentle bitterness accompanies the fade, leaving the palate ready for the next sip.

Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.

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.
