Hefe-Weizen Leicht

◎ Aussehen

A pale golden yellow with excellent clarity and fine carbonation. The head is stable and persistent, forming a tight white collar that clings to the glass walls with visible lacing. Despite its light alcohol content, the beer presents a well-structured and inviting appearance.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with delicate banana esters characteristic of the Hefeweizen yeast strain, complemented by a subtle earthiness from the yeast itself. A whisper of clove spice and soft wheat grain rounds out the profile, creating an inviting and balanced aromatic impression without any harsh alcohol notes.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is surprisingly full-bodied for its modest alcohol content, with dominant banana notes woven throughout. Clean wheat malt provides structure and subtle sweetness, while gentle clove spice adds complexity. The low bitterness (14 IBU) allows the fruit and grain to dominate, creating a smooth, drinkable character with good balance and no astringency.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and refreshing with a short to medium fade. The banana character persists gently into the aftertaste without leaving any residual sweetness or heavy mouthfeel.
