500 ml bottle. Golden hazy with lasting white head. Aroma and taste are wheat malt, grain, hay, yeast, some fruits fruits and bitter hops.

Bottle from Munich Airport grocery. Dark brown body with top head. Nose is roasty, subdued. Taste is also malty, spicy. Light on the alcohol. Some citrus notes in the finish. Okay.

Oklar bärnstens färgad med vitt fast skum. Doft: Gräddkola, skumbanan, halm, äpplen, honung. Smak: Halm, gräs, lätt syrlig typ äppelkart. Mycket tunn kropp och smak.

Det här var ett halvhjärtat försök till en weissbier, kroppen är inte riktigt där, smaken är inte tillräckligt kraftfull och doften är inte distinkt nog. Men den får duga under min folköls-period.

0,5 l bottle BB 09/13 Amber-orange Color, cloudy, frothy, white foam bread, cereal, banana, clove, citrus, medium sweetness, lightly sour, light-, medium body, thin feel, creamy, lively, watery / thin.

50 cl bottle from one of my local grocery stores, likely I got it from ICA Maxi, Grafiska Vägen.
Sampled on October 20, 2012. BB 04/2013.
Forgot to roll it, so my first pour didn’t get any sediment. At first light golden to amber color, huge off-white head. A bit estery banana scent, also malty and light acidic. Some faint clove, but more plastic and tin can, phenoles, some smoke. all this also in the scent. Sweet, grainy, minerals taste, sort of bland and thin at first. Aftertaste has more though, some estery banana coming through, also a sweetness hinting towards sugar and malt. Lingering fresh feelign to the taste. in the end. To the thin side mouthfeel, still OK for me though. Very low bitterness, but finishes rather dry and with a mineral and wet stone feeling to it.
Decent enough low alco beer for those driving days, or just when wanting something light. Not overly banana-ish, so should fit also those who don’t have weiss/weizen as their favourite. I can see myself drinking this more/again.
When agitating the bottle to get sediment, the look turns more towards a cloudy amber to orange color. Scent goes more distinct sweet with some underlying estery banana. Taste blands out a bit, mainly hints of banana, mixed with minerals, a bit sweet. Mouthfeel gets spritzier (got loose more co2 I guess), not sure if I like it better this way, but it is different at least. Still very drinkable, though still not standing out much.

Mindenben sokkal gyengébb az alapnál és nem csak a kalóriában és az alkohol mennyiségben. Ráadásul olyan, mintha egy féldeci ecetet is öntöttek volna bele. Egyszer elég volt belőle, biztos, hogy nem fogok rászokni...

Bottle from ICA MAXI. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are wheat malt, yeast, fruits and hops.

Bottle. Pours a hazy orange color with a longlasting white head. Has a fruity wheat malty spicy aroma with weak hints of banana. Fruity wheat malty spicy flavor with weak mouth feel. Has a fruity wheat malty spicy banana finish.

Smells plenty of fragrance. Tastes great and a little sour. The aftertaste is not good and can not keep still at all time luckily. Not the worst beer I had drunk but this is not worth buying again. Maybe just to taste. But no more.
