Pours a hazy yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is spicey, fruity and herbal. The flavour is light, with some banana being the most prominent flavour, a little coriander, and a bit of herbal alpin bitter finish. A damn refreshing beer, with great drinkability. Cheers!

Cloudy blond color, no head; it has anyway a persistent perlage. Aroma of banana candies and chewing-gum. It has a sweetish flavor, with very light wheat, some banana, no spices, almost no bitterness. If you hate beer, you like this.

Pours deep yellow with white foaming head. Fresh and refreshing unique spiciness, this leaves your breath fresh and minty, ready to yodel. Herbal and wintermint in aroma, drinks very smooth.

Strong white head, milky golden colour with a strong aroma. Tastes clean, finishes with a strong, bitter aftertaste, I’d drink it again.

Bottle-Cloudy yellow pour with a frothy but short lived white cap, leaving a little lace. The aromas are banana and clove with lemon and malts with a minty, herbal essence that s quite interesting. That must be the alpine herbs. Tastes of lemon and other citrus fruit, sweet banana, cloves and again an interesting minty spiciness. I quite like it. The finish is creamy and lingering.

Twist top bottle??? Pours a decent looking clouded pale straw in the glass with a 3 finger puffy cap. Great lacing. Color and look more reminiscent of a Belgian wit Good aroma for a commercial weissbier; banana, spices, cloves, bit of fruit bubblegum, and a mild herbal under tone....nice! A whack of sweet malts up front that instantly is joined with fruits, spice and some fine bittering herbs that compliment and brighten the hops...finish dries out nicely with a crisp snap and a bit of puckering dryness. Really nicely carried off for a commercial effort.Aromatic. fruity lightly sweet with a dry crispness. Very decent flavourful summer drink.

Clear bottle 330 ml
Appearance: Cloudy wheat ale with medium light ,semi dense head . 3-
Nose Herbal , citric aroma, grassy with light wheat bready hints.
Flavor/Palate : Character fully displayed. Ripe banana, citric side with herbal , wild root like finish. Caramel anise with mineral streak. Reminds me more of Belgian wit than classic weizen.

pours like typical wheat beer, cloudy pale yellow with big white frothy head. Aroma is what gives it character. Flavor is rather typical of this beer style, perhaps even milder in flavor than others I have tried. Overall not as interesting as I expected. A good beer nonetheless., I would buy again (price is decent) just not something I would seek out to try again. Does go down nice on a warm summer day.
