Wheat beer has always been known as an elixir or tonic, especially if the brewer’s yeast was left in the bottled beer. A very popular beer style, in Germany and around the world. Pale color, hazy; with a huge rocky head. Inviting and perhaps a bit tart in palate, this is "brut" beer with a delicious, smooth body from a grist bill of about 60% wheat. Flavor and aroma show the characteristic Ayinger elegance and perfect balance. Finishes with a subtle spicy, fruity note from a traditional Bavarian weissebier yeast strain - some tasters find they are reminded of cloves or ripe banana.
