COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A classical Weissbier at its best. Brewed according to a German recipe with 50% wheat malt and 50% pilsener malt.
The yeast is the same as is used at the German Ayinger Brewery - in our opinion they make one of the world's best Weissbiers.
The hops are aromatic Sterlings.
To add a spicy edge to the fruity flavours we have added a small handful of coriander seed.

madsberg (7525) - Søborg, - APR 22, 2006
Draught @ the brewpub: Light yellow coloured. Unclear. Dense off white head. Yeast, light banana and some spice. Flavour is similar, but the coriander is very evident, mingled with the fruitnotes. Meditum bodied. Is light herbal and has some fruity coriander yeast notes in the end. Pleasant and easy to drink.

chriso (7063) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - OCT 1, 2006
On draught at Apollo, Copenhagen, May 2006. Decent, hazy, hefeweizen appearance. Lemony, with a touch of coriander showing through in the aroma. However, the mouthfeel was a bit of a problem for me. Rather fizzy and carbonic, reminiscent of Alka Seltzer or soda water. That tends to obscure the flavours and detract from the overall impression.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 22, 2006
Draught@Købehavnske Øldage. Although it says to a German recipe, the addition of coriander makes its taste like a Belgian witbier. This was soft, with a lightly crteamy mouthfeel, and some really pleasant coriander spice and lemon and also some banana.

MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - JUN 25, 2006
Wheaty, slightly spicy aroma. Ckoudy yellow colour, small white head. The coriander is obvious and leaves the beer unbalanced. Could do with some citrus IMO.

Draught. Hazy yellow coloured with a white head. Sweet aroma of bananas, coriander and malts. Sweet flavour of bananas and spices. Good weissbier.

omhper (15956) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAY 22, 2006
[Draught at Københavnske Øldage] Cloudy yellow. Interesting aroma of banana and coriander. Sweet, lightly soapy and medium bodied. A pleasant slightly unusual thirst quencher.

Draught at the brewpub
Cloudy deep blond color. Strong spicy aroma. Malty taste, spicy, light fruitness. Maybe too bitter.
