Castle Hill Windward Weiss

Newport Craft Brewing
Newport, Rhode Island
Beer style: Weissbier - Hefeweizen
Ref: ratebeer.com Jun2024

Common descriptors are
It is an all-natural, all-grain brew comprised mainly of malted wheat and pale 2-row malted barley. There is a significant amount of Cara malt included to add residual complexity and results in a golden color. An authentic German Hefeweizen yeast strain was chosen to create Windward Weiss and it contributes mild banana tones and clove aromas characteristic in this style of beer. Three hops were chosen: Magnum hops for bittering, Tettenang hops for a mild spice flavor, and Cascade hops for a mild citrus finish. 100% unfiltered, this brew will remain cloudy to the glass, allowing the special yeast to round out the brew.

Brewed for the Newport Restaurant Group.
