What is wheat beer?
Wheat beer is brewed with a large percentage of wheat, giving it a soft body, hazy appearance, and often a fruity or spicy character. It’s a refreshing alternative to lagers or IPAs, and comes in many different styles like Weissbier and Witbier.
What’s the difference between Weissbier and Witbier?
Weissbier is a German-style wheat beer with yeast-driven flavours like banana and clove. Witbier is Belgian-style and brewed with citrus peel and spices, making it lighter and more aromatic.
