Ticks: 13

Our Hefeweizen was designed to emphasise the unique characteristics of this style without the extra carbonation that can make it difficult to serve. We use a lot of wheat malt: over 75% which makes for a long brew-day since wheat malt has no husk to aid the lautering process. We use a small amount of Spalt Select hops to not overwhelm the other unique flavours.

Oh dear. DMS central. Lots of grains on aroma. Banana and clove but there's a lot of cooked cabbage and butterscotch which is doing it no favours. Not a good beer at all unfortunately.

Bottle from Stori. Appearance - hazy orange with attractive lacing. Nose - trademark bananas with an edge of pear drops. A little sweet spice too. Taste - loads of banana, some toffee and then more sweet spice, possibly nutmeg. Palate - light to medium bodied. Lovely creamy texture. Balanced tapering on the finish. Overall - really authentic Germanic brewiny here.
