Paulaner Hefe Weissbier Dunkel 500ml x 20

Paulaner's Hefe Weissbier Dunkel originates from Munich's brewing tradition, where wheat beers have been a cornerstone since the 16th-century Bavarian court. This dark iteration of the hefeweizen style demonstrates the brewery's command of 50/50 wheat-to-barley malt ratios and proprietary Paulaner yeast strains that produce characteristic phenolic (clove, banana) esters during warm fermentation in open vessels. The dunkel variant employs darker Munich and chocolate malts to deepen color and add subtle cocoa undertones without sacrificing the signature banana-forward aromatics. Brewed to 5.1% ABV, the beer maintains the creamy, unfiltered body typical of Bavarian hefeweizens—yeast remains in suspension, contributing to mouthfeel and complexity. The Special Feature: this expression balances the wheat beer's inherent sweetness with roasted malt depth, creating a beer that drinks heavier than its modest alcohol suggests, yet remains sessionable across multiple servings. Best consumed fresh, within 6–8 months of packaging.
