The Aecht Schlenkerla Weizen is brewed with the following ingredients: water, wheat malt, barley malt, aroma hops, and top-fermenting Bavarian style wheatbeer yeast. Only the barley grain is smoked during the malting process, while the wheat malt remains unsmoked. Theoretically the wheatgrain could be exposed to the Original Schlenkerla smoke kilning process as well. The smokiness of the resulting wheatmalt, though, would be almost insignificant as the wheatgrain is not able to retain the smoky flavor due to its lack of spelt. After fermentation in the fermentation cellar, a precise amount of unfermented wort and original top-fermenting yeast are added to induce secondary fermentation in bottles and kegs. The dark-amber Aecht Schlenkerla Weizen is unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-conditioned.
The ensuing Original Bottle Conditioning (Keg Conditioning) creates a complex smokey taste profile intertwined with banana, clove, and vanilla-like flavors.
