Tasting Notes: Classic aromas of banana, clove and floral citrus blossom. Fruity, spicy aromas show a rich yeasty character that follows through on a smooth, medium-bodied palate with a delicately spicy finish
This summer specialty is made with 50% malted wheat for a clean, light, refreshing character. It derives its unique flavor and classic cloudy appearance from the yeast which settles into a thin layer on the bottom of the bottle.
Hefeweizens in Germany are traditionally served without a lemon wedge since the cheracter of the yeast imparts a delicate lemony quality to the beer. Kristalweizens (which are filtered) are often perked up with a squirt of lemon. We think ours is delicious with or without a slice of fruit but encourage you to try it au natural.
