Becken Negra
Dunkelweizen 5 º
This Dunkles Weissbier captures the traditional spirit of Southern Germany with a rich, mahogany-hued expression of malted wheat. The sensory experience is led by a classic fermentation profile, where prominent aromas of ripe banana and spicy clove dance over a foundation of bready, toasted cereal. The palate mirrors this aromatic complexity, delivering a satisfying depth of bread crust and soft caramel sweetness without the harshness of darker roasts. Effervescent carbonation provides a fluffy, creamy lift, ensuring this flavorful ale remains remarkably refreshing and well-balanced through its clean, slightly dry finish, perfectly embodying the brewer's intent for a dark yet approachable wheat beer.
Appearance. Light copper to dark mahogany brown in color with a characteristic haze from the use of wheat and yeast. It features a very thick, moussy, and long-lasting off-white head with excellent lacing.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Strong esters of banana and spicy phenols of clove are well-balanced. These are supported by a rich malt backbone featuring bready, doughy wheat and notes of toasted bread crust and light caramel.
Taste. Initial impression is of soft, bready wheat followed by richer flavors of toasted cereal and bread crust. Moderate banana and clove yeast characters are present and well-integrated with the malt. Bitterness is low, serving only to balance the malt sweetness. The finish is relatively dry and clean with a lingering toasted grain aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a fluffy, creamy texture. High carbonation provides an effervescent and refreshing quality. Alcohol warmth is very light and well-integrated.
