Libertas Hefe Weizen 11

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with light turbidity characteristic of the style. The head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass, leaving distinct lacing with each sip. High carbonation drives a fine, creamy foam that sustains throughout the drinking experience.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced banana and clove notes typical of weizen yeast fermentation, supported by soft, bready wheat malt aromas. Delicate citrus hop character emerges in the background, adding brightness without dominating the profile. The overall impression is clean and approachable, with the fruit and spice notes in pleasant balance.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with creamy wheat malt sweetness and immediate clove-banana character from the yeast. Mid-palate reveals bready, slightly grainy notes with soft citrus hop notes providing gentle brightness. Bitterness remains restrained at 20 IBU, allowing the malt sweetness and esters to dominate while maintaining good drinkability and refresh.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and relatively short, with residual sweetness giving way to a light, refreshing aftertaste. Lingering banana and subtle spice notes fade gradually, leaving the palate crisp and ready for the next sip.
