The Craft Weizen

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with a subtle haze characteristic of the style, revealing the wheat malt's delicate profile. A fine, tight head forms quickly and holds with modest persistence, leaving faint traces of lacing down the glass. Bright carbonation animates the body, appearing fresh and inviting.

◌ Aroma

Green apple and stone fruit lead the nose, with ripe peach notes providing roundness and complexity. A distinctive banana ester floats above, characteristic of weizen yeast fermentation, while clove spice enters only gently in the background. The overall impression is fresh and restrained, without aggressive phenolics.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens soft and mellow, with wheat malt delivering a smooth, almost creamy foundation. Peach and banana fruit flavors persist through the mid-palate, balanced by light acidity and minimal hop bitterness (15 IBU). The 5% ABV keeps the beer weightless, allowing delicate fruit and grain to express themselves without alcohol warmth.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and bright, fading quickly with a pleasant fruit-and-grain aftertaste. No harsh phenolics or lingering bitterness intrude; the beer leaves a refreshing, dry impression.
