Langharig Tuig

Van Moll
Netherlands·American Hefeweizen
Tap to rate

Clove, banana and a hint of citrus run through this hoppy weizen with its rough-edged wheat bite. It was born in 2016, when the metal festival Dynamo Open Air asked Van Moll for a festival beer. Pils, wheat and Munich malts meet Saphir, Amarillo and Mosaic hops, 5.5% and 25 IBU, light blond and meant to refresh in summer and warm in winter.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Langharig Tuig

◎ Appearance

Light golden hue with a pale straw glow, characteristic of wheat malt and low kilning. The beer presents moderate haziness from yeast suspension, creating a soft, translucent appearance. Head retention is firm and creamy, with fine bubbles that settle into a delicate lacing around the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with distinctive clove and banana esters typical of Hefeweizen fermentation, layered with subtle citrus notes from Amarillo and Mosaic hops. Wheat and light bready grain notes provide an earthy foundation, while a gentle spice edge cuts through without becoming aggressive. The overall impression is aromatic and inviting without excessive intensity.

◐ Taste

Entry displays a characteristic rough-edged wheat bite followed by immediate clove and banana flavors from the yeast. Mid-palate reveals a crisp, refreshing quality with integrated citrus hop character and a subtle spicy-herbal note from Saphir and Mosaic. Bitterness remains restrained at 25 IBU but provides enough definition to balance the fruity esters and grainy sweetness.

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.
