Maria (3816), Thisted, Denmark May 10, 2008 Clear golden with a nice head. Both aroma and flavour has more to offer than the average kristall. I find light sweetness and a good banana note, there is no clear clove and/or yeast, but that is low in the rest of the Schöffenhofer series too. Not as nice at the "normal" version, but better than expected.
KnutAlbert (2133), Oslo, Norway Jun 25, 2008 Bottled.
Fruit, banana, some citrus, very refreshing, but perhaps less of a mouth feel than in the hefe version. Go for the hefe if you have the choice. ekstedt (1739), Göteborg, Sweden Jun 10, 2008 Bottled at Zum Letzten Instanz, Berlin. Clear golden, long-lasting white head. Fruity with some spicy and estery banana notes. Moussy mouthfeel. Well balanced, dry finish. A good Kristallweizen, almost as good as the unfiltered version. gnoff (2532), Göteborg, Sweden Jun 8, 2008 (Bottle at Zur Letzten Instanz, Berlin) On June 7, 2008 Clear golden color, fluffy whte head. Buttery malty sweet taste, also banana. Fruity, sweet and banana scent. Moussy mouthfeel, low bitterness. oldrtybastrd (1512), Morlautern, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany May 13, 2008 Pours a nice golden yellow. Aromas of of citrus, fruit, and a little yeasty. Flavor is crips, almost pilsner like. A little hops at the end.
