UPDATED: DEC 15, 2011 500ml. Pours dense hazy pale yellow, one inch head, very carbonated. Not a strong smell but mostly wheat grain, fresh bread, some lemon citrus. The taste is great with just a little touch on everything great in German wheat and yeast. Some citrusy sweetness and bitterness, a little lemon and clementine orange. Some banana and faint clove from the yeast. A little hay and dryness in finish reminds me of a belgian wit, but then i get some bubblegum and banana and citrus and lingering vanilla as it warms. This is very drinkable for a liquid loaf of bread, and this needs to be more available in the States. Great in the summer, great all the time.
