This artisanal Weissbier showcases the unique sensory profile of Mallorcan blat de xeixa, an heirloom wheat variety that imparts a rustic, doughy foundation. The aroma is dominated by a classic fermentation profile, featuring moderate to strong notes of ripe banana and spicy clove. On the palate, the grainy sweetness of the wheat provides a soft, bready core that balances the yeast-driven esters. The use of blat de xeixa enhances the refreshing quality, leading to a clean, dry finish. Effervescent carbonation and a signature fluffy texture make this a highly drinkable and vibrant interpretation of the traditional German wheat beer style.
Appearance.Pale straw to gold (3-5 SRM). Displays a very thick, moussy, and persistent white head with excellent lacing. The body is hazy with a characteristic yeast shine, consistent with the style.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity with a classic balance of banana esters and clove-like phenols. A distinctively bready, grainy, and doughy wheat aroma from the blat de xeixa is prominent. Very low spicy hop notes are optional but may provide a subtle background layer.
Taste.Low to moderate banana and clove flavors are well-integrated. The malt profile features soft, bready, and grainy wheat flavors supported by a light pilsner malt sweetness. Bitterness is low, ensuring a well-rounded and flavorful palate. The finish is relatively dry and refreshing without being heavy or cloying.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light to medium body with a fluffy, creamy fullness. High to very high carbonation creates a spritzy, effervescent sensation. Finishes clean with no astringency or notable alcohol warmth.
