Weihenstephaner Hefeweißbier Dunkel

◎ Aussehen

A chestnut-brown Dunkelweizen with natural cloudiness from suspended yeast, presenting a rich yet translucent body when held to light. The dense white head forms quickly and clings to the glass with persistent lacing, while steady carbonation threads upward through the liquid.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent ripe banana esters and a fruity sweetness characteristic of wheat beer fermentation, layered beneath soft, biscuity malt notes. A whisper of caramel and bread rounds out the profile, with no hop aroma asserting itself—allowing the yeast and grain to dominate.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is marked by a gentle caramel tone that quickly gives way to bready, roasted dark malt flavors. The palate remains full-bodied and velvety despite modest alcohol, with lively carbonation providing texture and lift; bitterness is restrained, allowing banana and caramel notes to linger without conflict.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length, with banana and residual caramel sweetness fading gradually rather than abruptly. A dry, malty undertone emerges as the beer warms, anchoring the otherwise fruity impression.

Serviertemperatur 7–9°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.

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