Fra fat på Ølhallen i Tromsø. Aprikosfarget. Lite skumdannelse til hveteøl å være. Litt uklart. Nydelig sitrusaroma med ytterligere nyanser av frukt. Fyldig smak med plommer, rosin og banan. Fin overgang til en markert tørr, fruktig ettersmak - som varer lenge. For kraftig til typisk hveteøl-bruk (tørsteslukker / matøl). Mer karakter av et koseøl. Ny stil: Imperial Wheat? 8-) .

A special ale brewed for the rock festival Bukta – Tromsø Open Air Festival (including bands like Dinosaur Jr., Danko Jones, Juliette Lewes among others). My rating is based on 500ml from tap at Ølhallen where Bukta Hvete was served comfortably chilled. Orange body with a typical wheat haze. Huge, fluffy white head slowly fading to a tiny patchy surface. Fresh aroma of sweet banana and wheaty malts. Sweet flavour of banana, spices and wheat offset by citric fruits and a nice, mildly bitter touch towards the finish. Drying on the palate. Full to medium bodied and well made. Maybe a bit too heavy for festival goers (Tromsø, 09.07.2010).
