Low carbonation with a frothy head over a gold low carbonation ale. Muted banana and bubblegum somewhat subdued but still very nice.

An exceptionally clean and clear Kristall with an abundance of flavors and an beautiful aroma. I love the appearance of this weiss beer! This beer is perfect to drink on a snady beach in front of a warm campfire.

Clear golden of color with a white head. An aroma of DMS, brown coal from east germany, cooked vegetables and weak hints of wheat. A taste with notes of wheat, fruits and weak banana notes.

Bottled: Deep golden, tall white head. Clear. Good carbonation. Wheaty, yeasty aroma with notes of banana and citrus. Very good Kristall indeed.
