Bavarian Weizen
Unleash the Yeast Series.
Our Unleash the Yeast series was an epic experiment into the differences in aroma and flavour provided by switching up your yeast. We brewed up a wort with a light caramel note and some toasty biscuit flavour, and hopped it with Amarillo and Centennial for a citrusy bitterness. Everything else is down to the yeast. Bavarian Weizen yeast adds traditional weissbier notes of banana and clove.
