Wagner Hefeweizen
A top-fermented wheat beer brewed at 12.7 °P and bottle-conditioned, with an even, fine yeast haze and comparatively low carbonation for the style. It pours a hazy golden yellow. Banana, wheat and yeast lead the nose, and the palate adds banana and orange over a soft, slightly sweet body. The finish is dry and fruity with spicy notes and a noticeable citrus character reminiscent of orange peel.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Wagner Hefeweizen
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.
Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
