| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 9, 2005 Bottle: Very pale golden; huge off-white fluffy head, rather quickly diminishing; fruity, citrusy and grainy nose, traces of cloves and bavarian bananas; very light sweetish flavour, creamy mouthfeel; very light bodied, but not watery; faint fruity (citrus, bananas again) finish. Not bad, not really necessary..................... moseefus (58), Omaha, Nebraska, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 4, 2005 Poured a clear yellow/brown with a medium white head. The aroma, appearance and taste reminded me quite a bit of american pale lagers that I despise. I am typically a dark beer man, so that may influence me. I simply didn’t care for this beer, but my friend absoutley loved his. HenrikSoegaard (4379), Randers, Denmark
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 16, 2005 Bottle. Creamy excellent white mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Nice malty aroma. OK flavour and palate. Papsoe (15103), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Aug 26, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) Pale golden with a decent head. Rather light-bodied with some faint notes of wheat, but naturally not much fruitiness (that’s left back in the filter right now). Dry and slightly sulphurous. I’ll never be a huge fan of Kristalls. 210500 shendrix (478), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Aug 24, 2005 For a kristal, this brew is quite good. Crisp and light on the tongue, bracing yet never intrusive. The fruit and cloves rescue it from being boring, while not demanding too much from the drinker. A good pub brew.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 1, 2005 Pale yellow body with a solid white head. Wheaty, light spicy aroma with a fruity sweetness. Wheaty flavor with a citric note and some banana sweetness. dortmunder (961), Herdecke, Germany
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 2, 2005 Clear golden colour. Medium, very frothy and dense head. Aroma is slightly yeasty and citric. Banana flavour is quite strong for a kristallweizen. Otherwise it´s citric with notes of cloves and hints of yeast. Medium body combined with a good mouthfeel. I really dig this one. Quite nice.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 12, 2005 (bottle) Clear golden body with a thick foamy white head. Slight banana and citrus notes in the aroma with a hint of clove. Rather bland taste, thin but crispy, but everything missing I´m expecting for a mouthful of Weizen. Ok, I´m not so in Kristallweizen, but this one is quite disappointing, at least compared to its bigger brothers/sisters from Schneider.
