50 cl bottle @ Timo A.
Pours hazy colour with large white head, some large pieces of sediment on the bottom of the bottle. Aroma of herbs, mild fruity notes, yeast and sweetish wheat. Flavour of apricot, mild peach, wheat, herbal notes and some spices. Decent aroma but the flavour is a bit disappointing.

laiti (1689) - Tampere, FINLAND - JAN 10, 2012
50 cl bottle, BBE 30.04.2012
Aroma is sweetish and a bit floury with ripe banana and hints of floury apples. Flavour is a bit weird and watery with bubblegum and banana. Also hints of cardboard. Rather foamy palate. Drinkable.

Pours a hazy orange colour with a small white head. Aroma of mandarin orange, floral and some perfume-like notes. Flavour of wheat, mandarin orange, banana, yeast and some light hops. Medium bodied, smooth mouthfeel, decent carbonation and a light finish with wheat and some light fruity notes. Very well balanced.

rosenbergh (3494) - Helsinki, FINLAND - DEC 15, 2011
500 ml bottle. From bierzwerg.de.
Cloudy golden colour with big white fluffy head. Lively. Fruity aroma with apple, marmalade, wheat, mild spices and mild yeast in aroma. Smooth flavour of sweetish fruitiness, apple, mild bitterness, mild spices and nice yeastiness. Some resemblance with Belgian Ale yeastiness. Smooth and pleasant Weiße.

brugmanneke (81) - GERMANY - OCT 26, 2011
(bottle) Yellow, with a beautiful creamy head. Light bitter taste with a sour touch. Neither bananas nor cloves dominate, instead there is a nice flowery aroma. But the texture is a bit too thin/watery this time - the first bottle I had some weeks ago near the brewery was more intense. Still good, I like it flowery, and it feels like summer.
