Stiegl Braueri - Gipfelstürmer

A wonderfully refreshing and innovative creation from Salzburg's historic Stiegl Brewery, Gipfelstürmer is an organic, hop-forward wheat beer that brings a modern twist to traditional Austrian brewing. Crafted using organic spelt wheat malt and barley malt, this distinctive speciality combines the fruity, spicy character of a classic Hefeweizen with the vibrant hop aromas of contemporary craft beer.

Pouring a beautiful sunrise-orange with a generous, creamy off-white head, Gipfelstürmer delivers enticing aromas of green banana, fragrant cloves and exotic hops. The distinctive wheat beer yeast provides familiar fruity and spicy notes, while the carefully selected organic hops introduce an additional layer of aromatic complexity.

On the palate, delicate banana sweetness and gentle clove spice mingle with fresh, fruity hop flavours and a pleasantly restrained bitterness. The spelt wheat malt contributes a subtle grainy character, while the beer's relatively light body and lively carbonation create a wonderfully crisp, invigorating drinking experience.

Finishing clean and refreshing with a lingering touch of herbal hop bitterness, Gipfelstürmer is a beautifully balanced interpretation of modern wheat beer. An excellent companion to seafood, grilled fish and light summer dishes, it's a superb choice for anyone who enjoys traditional Hefeweizen with a contemporary, hop-driven twist.
