Notas
Beers in this style are made with at least 50 percent wheat malt. They are often roused during pouring, and, when yeast is present, will have a yeasty flavor and a fuller mouthfeel.
Cor
Straw to copper-amber
Limpidez
If served with yeast, appearance may be very cloudy.
Aroma e sabor de malte
Very low to medium-low
Aroma e sabor de lúpulo
Not present to very low
Amargor
Very low
Caráter de fermentação
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.
Corpo
Low with a lighter mouthfeel than Hefeweizen. The German word "leicht" means light, and as such these beers are light versions of Hefeweizen.
