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.

Bottle. Pours a pale golden, very effervescent with a creamy white head that laces nicely. Aroma is sweet, faint banana sweet. Flavor is mild banana sweet upfront a sweet malt body that finishes dry and a hint tart. Light, refreshing and quaffable.

Pours as crystal clear pale and golden as a bud light, with an enormous fluffy white head that leaves plenty of lace. There is plenty of bubbly effervescence coming up from the bottom of the glass. Aromas of copper banana and some spiciness. Flavor is bubblegum some sweat some banana and just a mild little spiciness. Overall it’s sweeter than I like a beer to be but that’s fairly typical of the style. The mouth feel is very light and smooth.

pours pale yellow with a big fluffy head. Smells a bit floral with a bit of yeast and fruit. Ultra clear and a bit thin on the mouth. Not bad really.

16.9 oz Bottle-Clear yellow color w/a moderate, quickly dissipating white head. Spiced wheat aroma. Solid wheat, fruit, spice, banana, citrus. Kind of a light, thin mouthfeel, especially compared to their Hefe, but a solid beer overall. Easy to drink, alcohol was well hidden.

Lovely wheat beer.Creamy malt, smooth and a crap load of the customary banana ester vibe .Salty,bitter and attacking on the palate.Raspy i’d say .

Gorgeous pale golden colour, with an immaculate clean white head. Typical wheat beer traits of cloves and banana, with a lovely creamy mouthfeel. A good swill around the mouth reveals a hint of orangey citrus. Refreshing, easy drinking and just the right amount of fizz. Great stuff.
