3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Malt and Vine. Pours hazy orange gold with a fizzy/creamy white head. Aroma is sort of toffee. Fizzy med body. Flavor is wheat with a little toffee, maybe a bit of citrus. Finish does seem kind of lightly acidic - so citrus I guess. Suddenly I am getting a little clove spice - so little I think I overlooked it.

.5l Bottle from Kuca Piva in Zagreb. Another German Hefe (which Marko loves, look for his take): Spicy darker orange body with smooth full flavor, mellowed candy and full malting for body. Great feel, heavy for a Hefe, soapy head that cuts through all the sweet mass. Tasty, full bodied sweet and sour hefe, not extreme on any edge. Quite tasty and also interesting. Would love to try this in a pint that I wasn’t reading too closely

For a Wheatbeer the head is not too overwhelming .. its just perfect.
Beautiful golden colour asking pleasantly to drink it.
Taste is very refined and the palate is well rounded.
What a nice brew.

50cl bottle. Hazy orange body with a foamy white persistent head. Aroma is banana and citrus (lemon). Light body, thin texture (not so much into the weizen style, indeed). A bit watery.

UPDATED: MAY 10, 2012 Tap (Tuulensuu, Tampere)
Sweet banana aroma - classic hefeweizen. Smooth palate, crisp carbonation. A touch of toffee, but mostly the banana. Kinda dull, but very drinkable. Maybe a little watery later. Bizarrely, the sugars and esters come over as prunes later still.
Rerate of 500ml bottle (William K Mannerheimintie, Helsinki)
Indentical scores all round. Lovely perfumey flowery aroma, almost lavendery in its refreshing uplifting nature. Taste is a bit more boring and stodgy. Hops are nice in the finish, full buds.

Draught @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, Tampere.
Pours a hazy golden colour with a white frothy head. Aroma of sweet fruity and citrusy fruits. Flavour of wheat, fruits, citrus and some toffee. Medium bodied, slick mouthfeel and a fruity, slightly dry finish. Refreshing.

Hazy deep orange color, good off-white head. Citrus and hints of metal in the nose. Light-bodied. Banana, a bit overriped one, active carbonation, sweetish marshmallow notes. Short sweet and yeasty finish. Decent anyway.
