Sternburg German Wheat Beer

◎ Appearance

Pours a naturally cloudy golden-yellow, characteristic of an unfiltered Hefeweizen. A substantial white head forms and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Bright carbonation rises steadily through the hazy body, creating an inviting, alive appearance.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe banana—a classic Hefeweizen signature from the yeast fermentation—accompanied by subtle stone fruit notes. Delicate clove spice weaves through, adding warmth and complexity without overwhelming. Soft wheat malt rounds out the profile, creating a balanced, approachable bouquet.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and smooth, with bready grain flavours that echo the wheat base. The palate is full-bodied and rounded, with yeasty phenols reinforcing the banana and clove notes. Lively carbonation lifts the mouthfeel, while a gentle tartness builds toward the finish, keeping the beer crisp and refreshing.

◑ Finish

The finish is refreshing and lightly tart, with lingering wheat and clove notes that fade cleanly. No harsh bitterness remains; instead, a gentle drying sensation invites another 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.
