Heidi-Weisse

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden-yellow with a slight turbidity characteristic of the style, revealing the active Bavarian yeast in suspension. A dense, creamy white head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine retention, leaving delicate lacing on each sip. The carbonation is brisk yet refined, creating a soft effervescence.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by pronounced clove and banana esters derived from the Bavarian weizen yeast, lending a distinctly spicy and fruity character. Soft wheat notes underscore the fermentation profile, with a gentle breadiness and subtle sweetness in the background. No hop aroma is evident, allowing the yeast to command the sensory experience.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with balanced sweetness and a full, slightly creamy mouthfeel. Banana and clove flavors integrate seamlessly with the wheat and yeasty foundation, creating a cohesive whole. Bitterness is restrained at just 14 IBU, allowing the fruity and spicy yeast character to dominate without astringency. The finish dries gently, with lingering clove and wheat notes.

◑ Abgang

The finish is refreshingly dry despite the beer's softness, with the spicy clove and banana esters fading gradually into a faintly grainy aftertaste. The beer remains remarkably clean and food-friendly, inviting another sip.

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.
