Rothaus Weizenbock

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber to copper-brown, reflecting the 22 SRM and the inclusion of darker malts in the grain bill. The beer presents good clarity with a dense, cream-colored head that exhibits strong lacing and persistence. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a refined visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent ripe banana and stone fruit esters characteristic of wheat beer fermentation. Beneath this fruity profile lies a subtle caramel sweetness and hints of dark dried fruit—plum and raisin—balanced by the soft, clean yeast character. The overall impression is warm and inviting without any sharp phenolic or spicy notes.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full and soft, with the wheat malt providing a smooth, slightly creamy foundation. Banana and dark fruit flavors dominate the mid-palate, accompanied by subtle caramel undertones that add depth without cloying. Bitterness is restrained at 13 IBU, allowing the malt sweetness and fruit esters to take the lead; the 7% ABV manifests as a gentle warmth rather than harshness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is deep and lingering, with the fruit and caramel notes extending into a warm, rounded aftertaste. There is no sharp cutoff; instead, the beer fades gracefully with a gentle sweetness and the pleasant warmth of moderate alcohol strength.
