Stiegl-Kreativ Bio Hausbier Gipfelstürmer

Tap to rate

Orange like the rising sun under a cream-coloured head: green banana, exotic hop tones and wheat-beer clove rise from the glass. A finely bitter hop taste meets a lean body and lively, finely sparkling carbonation, and the finish is gently hoppy. Top-fermented, brewed with organic spelt-wheat malt, barley malt and hops at 12° and 5.2 % ABV.

Serve at 5–8°C

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

Weizen glass

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.

Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
