Helle Weizen

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with a cloudy, suspended appearance characteristic of the style. A dense, cream-colored head forms quickly and persists well, leaving fine lacing along the glass as it settles. Bright carbonation is evident throughout, with fine bubbles rising steadily through the hazy body.

◌ Aroma

Banana dominates the nose with ripe, fruity esters—a hallmark of open-vessel fermentation and weizen yeast character. Clove and subtle spice emerge as the beer warms, with soft wheat notes underneath. A light herbal quality from minimal noble hop additions rounds out the profile without asserting itself.

◐ Geschmack

Banana and clove lead the palate entry, with wheat providing a clean, grainy foundation. The mid-palate runs distinctly dry for the style, avoiding the sweetness typical of many Hefeweizens, while gentle spice and yeast complexity linger. Bitterness is restrained at 14 IBU, allowing fruit and spice to dominate without harshness.

◑ Abgang

Crisp and refreshing, with a short to medium finish that emphasizes the dryness. The aftertaste carries faint banana and clove notes before fading cleanly.
