Gailtaler Weiße

◎ Aussehen

Pale amber hue with a dense, persistent white head that clings to the glass with fine lacing. The body is visibly hazy from suspended yeast, creating a cloudy golden appearance characteristic of the style. Gentle carbonation rises in fine streams, contributing to a lively and inviting presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with prominent ripe banana and wheat grain, followed by subtle clove spice and a whisper of citrus. The aromatic profile reflects Loncium's house yeast strain, which generates these classic ester-driven notes without overwhelming herbality. Soft and approachable, with no sharp or fermentation-derived off-notes.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is soft and rounded, with the wheat malt providing a silky texture and mild sweetness. Mid-palate develops a full body with fruit-forward character—banana and subtle citrus notes persist—balanced by gentle bitterness (25 IBU) that does not dominate. The yeast character remains integrated, adding depth without harshness, and the finish maintains a clean, refreshing quality.

◑ Abgang

Medium-length finish with a drying quality from the wheat malt and light hop bitterness. The yeast character fades gracefully, leaving a clean, slightly grainy aftertaste that invites another sip.
