Weizen-Weissbier 5.4 º 13 IBU

Klosterbrauerei Weltenburg - Weltenburger Kloster

This classic Weissbier from the historic Weltenburger Kloster presents a vibrant, deep golden yellow hue, radiating freshness with its signature natural carbonation. The sensory experience is defined by a masterfully balanced fermentation profile, where distinctive notes of ripe banana esters harmonize with spicy clove phenols. On the palate, the influence of premium wheat malt provides a soft, bready foundation, complemented by a subtle, grainy sweetness. It finishes clean and spritzy, offering a light, fluffy mouthfeel that highlights its traditional Bavarian roots. Designed for refreshment, it balances yeast-driven complexity with a crisp, approachable character perfect for a traditional morning aperitif or a sun-drenched terrace.

Appearance. Dark golden yellow (5 SRM); features a very thick, moussy, long-lasting white head with excellent lacing; hazy with a distinct yeast-driven shimmer.

Aroma. High intensity with a pronounced balance of ripe banana esters and spicy clove phenols; supported by a moderate bready and doughy wheat character; virtually no hop aroma present.

Taste. Initial impression is refreshing and soft; dominant flavors of bready wheat and grainy sweetness are perfectly countered by low bitterness (approx. 12 IBU). Balanced banana and clove yeast character persists throughout, leading to a relatively dry, clean, and spritzy finish with no lingering harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a characteristic fluffy and creamy fullness; high to very high carbonation provides an effervescent, lively sting; negligible alcohol warmth and zero astringency.
