Weizen is a German wheat beer brewed according to the German Reinheitsgebot. It is served in large glasses, with the full creamy head rising to centimetres above the glass. The taste is soft, creamy and sweet with little bitterness. Aromas of spices, cloves and banana are common. The yeast at the bottom of the bottle is loosened and poured into the glass with the beer. This makes the beer cloudy and gives it a fuller taste. Weizen is brewed with at least half wheat malt. Unlike witbier , no spices are added to Weizen.
