However, it&#8217;s important to note that some wheat beer styles can be notably dark, such as the German Dunkels Weissbier, also known as Dunkelweizen.<\/p>\n<p>So, it&#8217;s worth mentioning that wheat beers come in various colors.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Why do wheat beers have different colors?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The differing colors of German Wheat Beers are due to the prevalent use of malted wheat, which gives a rich golden hue to the beer. This color can even become darker in styles like Dunkel Weizen or Weizenbock.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, Belgian-style Witbier is typically made from a blend of malted and non-malted cereals, sometimes incorporating wheat flour, resulting in a much paler appearance.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Besides color, what distinguishes German and Belgian wheat beers? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Both beer styles share the common characteristic of being brewed with wheat, a difference from the usual barley malt. However, they differ significantly beyond this shared trait. German Weizen, or Weissen, are generally limited to only a few selected ingredients: malt, wheat, hops, yeast, and water. These beers typically contain 40% malted wheat, although this ratio can extend up to 70%. Consequently, their aromas primarily come from the yeast-wheat combination, resulting in robust phenolic, banana, and sweet tutti-frutti notes. German Weizens adhere to these standards, which exclude the addition of extra spices.<\/p>\n<p>Belgian Witbier, in contrast, relies on a lower percentage (not exceeding 40%) of unmalted wheat. The uniqueness of Belgian Witbier comes from the use of added spices like coriander, lavender, or orange zest or peels. Coupled with a less phenolic yeast, the base beer tends to be milder, serving as a canvas for the infusion of additional ingredients.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1911705527\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1885862870\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h3><strong>How do Fermentis&#8217; new products meet these specific styles needs? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Fermentis has developed two yeast strains tailored to the diverse world of wheat beer styles. SafAle W-68\u2122\u2122 and SafAle\u2122 BW-20 are engineered to enhance the distinctive characteristics of these styles while preserving their essence.<\/p>\n<p>SafAle W-68\u2122, a renowned German yeast strain from Weihenstephan, Germany, is ideal for traditional German styles. It offers medium attenuation, a moderate phenolic flavor, and prominent banana and tutti fruti notes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do these different strains complement SafAle\u2122 WB-06? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, SafAle\u2122 WB-06 is indeed part of our historic yeast strain offerings. This versatile yeast strain can produce a range of characteristics depending on the conditions applied, including a pronounced phenolic and estery profile with notes of banana and apple, culminating in a typically dry finish. It is suitable for both German and Belgian style wheat beers, often producing highly attenuated, dry beers with a touch of acidity and crispness.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that this is a simplified overview of our yeast strains for wheat-based beers, and we encourage brewers to experiment, as any of the three strains can be used to create exceptional Belgian, German, or other unique wheat beer styles.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-836911516\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<div
