Cream of Wheat

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden in colour with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass with deliberate lacing. The carbonation is lively but restrained, creating a soft effervescence that complements rather than dominates the visual presentation. The beer holds its foam structure throughout service, signalling good body and wheat protein contribution.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent citrus and stone fruit notes—peach and lychee leap forward—underpinned by a clean, resinous hop character that avoids harshness. Beneath lies a soft, grainy wheat foundation with subtle malt sweetness, neither overstated nor hidden. The overall impression is one of balance: fruit and hops converse without either drowning the other.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is full-bodied and velvety, the wheat grain structure delivering creaminess without heaviness. The mid-palate reveals a pronounced bitterness—refined rather than aggressive—that frames layers of tropical stone fruit and floral complexity. Malt provides backbone, but the beer never tips into sweetness; instead, it sustains a dialogue between refined bitterness and soft fruity warmth through the swallow.

◑ Abgang

The finish is moderately long, with the bitterness holding centre stage while peach and lychee notes gently fade. A slight warming from the 8% alcohol lingers in the mouth without heat or harshness, leaving the palate dry and conversational rather than demanding.
