Les Deux Amants

This session-strength Weissbier offers a vibrant sensory twist on the Bavarian classic, infused with earthy turmeric. The aroma is led by high intensities of classic weizen yeast esters, specifically ripe banana, and spicy clove phenols, complemented by a unique peppery, rhizomatous note from the curcuma. On the palate, soft, bready wheat and grainy Pilsner malt flavors provide a supple base for the interplay of spice and fruit. Effervescent carbonation and a light-bodied frame make for a refreshing, dry finish where the turmeric lingers as a subtle, warm earthiness against a backdrop of creamy malt.

Appearance. Pale straw to yellow with a noticeable golden-orange tint from the turmeric. Hazy to opaque with a thick, moussy, persistent white head and fine lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of banana esters and clove-like phenols. Low bready, doughy wheat character. Distinctive secondary aroma of earthy, spicy, and slightly peppery turmeric.

Taste. Initial impression of soft, grainy wheat and light pilsner malt sweetness. Low bitterness. Mid-palate reveals prominent banana and clove yeast character, followed by a savory, earthy turmeric spice. Finish is dry and clean with a lingering spicy-herbal aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a fluffy, creamy fullness. High carbonation provides a prickly, spritzy sensation. No alcohol warmth; smooth and refreshing.
