Kellerweis

◎ Aussehen

Kellerweis pours a hazy golden hue with excellent clarity for the style, revealing the characteristic cloudiness from its open fermentation method. A creamy white head forms generously and persists with fine, delicate lacing around the glass. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a soft, pillowy foam that frames the liquid beautifully.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent banana bread and clove notes, classic signatures of Bavarian hefeweizen yeast character. Supporting aromatics include fresh wheat, subtle citrus, and a delicate nuttiness that rounds out the profile. The overall impression is warm, inviting, and balanced rather than aggressive or peppery.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is velvety and full-bodied despite the modest 4.8% ABV, with the Munich and wheat malts providing a soft, slightly sweet foundation. Banana and clove flavors carry through the mid-palate, complemented by the wheat's grainy character and a gentle herbal note from the Crystal hop. A slight tartness emerges on the back palate, preventing the beer from becoming cloying and maintaining refreshment.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and moderately short, with the tartness lingering pleasantly without harshness. A subtle grain and yeast dryness follows, leaving the palate refreshed rather than weighed down.

Etwas wärmer als ein Lagerbier — 8–12°C lässt die Bananen- und Nelkenaromen der Hefe voll zur Geltung kommen.

An der Basis schmal und oben ausladend — konzipiert für den reichlichen Schaum eines Weizenbiers, während der trüb-goldene Körper zur Geltung kommt.
