Primator Weizen

Weizen is a refreshing, unfiltered beer with characteristically dense foam. Notes of banana, cloves and a slight hint of nectarine can be found in both the aroma and flavour. It is an old Bohemian style that was consumed in Bohemia before the advent of Pilsner back in 1842 and is now nearly extinct. While Bavarian Weissbier is abundant, the Bohemian version is now rare. Unlike its German counterpart, the Bohemian version is much softer and less complex, being strongly dominated by banana esters. This makes it highly drinkable and can easily convince customers who do not normally drink Weissbier/wheat beer. Overall, a cracking summer thirst-quencher. Its quality is evident from the many awards it receives annually at both domestic and international tasting competitions. After all, how many Czech beers can boast such a prestigious title as “The Best Beer in the World”, awarded by the World Beer Awards in London?
