Gjæringskarakter
The phenolic and estery aromas typical of Weissbiers should be present but less pronounced in this style. The overall flavor profile is less complex than Hefeweizen due to a lower alcohol content and there is less yeasty flavor. Diacetyl should not be present.
Fylde
Low with a lighter mouthfeel than Hefeweizen. The German word "leicht" means light, and as such these beers are light versions of Hefeweizen.
