Emma WEST brewery has launched Heidi-Weisse, a refreshing Bavarian-style wheat beer in bottles just in time for summer.
An homage to WEST founder Petra Wetzel’s childhood in rural Franconia (and the name of the original brewery dog), Heidi-Weisse is a brand extension of the brewery’s prize-winning draught Hefeweizen.
WEST founder Petra Wetzel said: “Heidi-Weisse is as nutritious and healthy a beer as you will get anywhere! It’s a great beer for the summer: refreshing, easy drinking and packed with wholesomeness from the wheat, hops, water and a little live yeast, which is good for you.
“And it’s great mixed with fresh apple juice (we call it Apfelweiss) which, together with Heidi-Weisse’s banana flavours, must account for at least two of your five a day!”
It will be available in major supermarkets across Scotland prior to roll-out throughout the UK and is vegetarian and vegan-friendly.
