General Information
Hiddenseer Weizen is an excellent example of traditional German craftsmanship in brewing. Weizen, or weissbier, is a wheat beer that originates from Bavaria. This specific beer uses both wheat and barley, carefully selected to deliver a rich, full flavor. The unique yeast used in production creates the characteristic banana and clove notes that are so loved by weissbier enthusiasts.
Taste Profile
The Hiddenseer Weizen is characterized by its cloudy, golden color and a firm, white foam head. The aroma and flavor palette are dominated by a harmonious mix of banana, clove, and a hint of citrus. These flavors are beautifully balanced with a light hop bitterness, resulting in a refreshing and relatively soft finish.
Serving Advice
To enjoy the Hiddenseer Weizen optimally, serve the beer ideally at a temperature between 6 and 8 degrees Celsius. This type of beer pairs excellently with light meals, such as salads, young cheeses, or a traditional German bratwurst.
