Commercial Description:
The source of its pearling, effervescent taste is the secret fermentation process which we have developed especially for our crystal wheat beer. It quenches your thirst like no other beer. With its elegant appearance, it is the speciality of our brewery. Goes well with fish, seafood and light dishes.

16.9 oz. bottle. Pours a crystal clear gold with a large white head that is fed by a steady stream of tiny carbonation bubbles. The head lasts through two-thirds of the glass and leaves some patchy lace. Pleasant aroma of wheat and orange. The flavor is wheat with some mild orange, lemon and banana. A bit of sweetness in the flavor as well. Nice crisp finish. Very refreshing and enjoyable.

Bottle: Clear, pale golden, big, persistent white head; moderate clean wheaty-citrousy nose; sweetish-sourish flavour, fizzy and light bodied; sweetish-lemony finish with a little tartness coming late. Don’t like the style very much, but I like this example.........

clear golden with a head that is absolutely bonkers... gargantuan. Wheaty lighty citrusy with yeasty metallic notes to smell. A slightly watery body, yet has light spiced and clovey features which makes for a drinkable and quenching brew. Not expecting a lot of depth here, but surprised at the amount of substance. Still good for what it is.

(6/17/08) Bottle at Schwarzwaldstuben in Berlin. Clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma of wheat, clove, banana and a bit of bubblegum notes. Sweetish flavor with some banana and some spiciness. Medium-bodied. Definitely good, but still not close to its unfiltered brother

On tap @ in de Wildeman. Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma of banana, wheat. Flavour is banana sweetness, wheat, some dough. Crisp finish, a little bitter even. Full mouthfeel, lots of carbonation. Very refreshing.
