About

Brewed by the world's oldest operating brewery on the grounds of the former Weihenstephan Abbey in Bavaria, Kristall Weissbier follows centuries of brewing tradition while distinguishing itself through crystal clarity. Unlike its cloudy hefeweizen counterpart from the same brewery, this filtered wheat beer offers refined refinement. Banana and clove dominate the nose, hallmarks of Bavarian wheat beer character. The palate opens with grassy and citrus notes before soft banana and wheat malt emerge. Light to medium-bodied with brisk carbonation, it delivers a crisp and creamy mouthfeel that feels both refreshing and substantial. At 5.4% ABV, this is an approachable yet characterful beer that respects German brewing law while marrying traditional technique with a polished, bright presentation.
