Schöfferhofer Kristallweizen

...bottle. Clove, citrus and hints of bananna on the nose with some wheat. Pours a clear golden yellow, with a nice puffy white head, and lively carbonation that lasts untill the end. Flavors are subtle compared to the unfiltered version, with a lighter body and less creamy consistancy. Still a good brew with wheat malt, clove, citrus and some slight hop notes coming through. Finishes dry, but lacks the flavor of the original. That is always the case with any kristal, the beer must be unfiltered for the true full flavor experience. That goes for any wheat based beer if you want maximum flavor. Still very drinkable and good, but go for the normal hefe.

Bottle. Poured clear golden, fluffy white head. Banana bubblegum nose. Flavours of banana, sweet zest, slight bitterness. Otherwise pretty weak watery beer.
