Ungstrup (11692), Frederiksberg, Denmark Feb 1, 2005 An hazy orange beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by banana. The flavor is very wheaty with notes of banana and a thin body. Papsoe (11062), Frederiksberg, Denmark Aug 27, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) Clear and golden with a huge head. I’m not a great fan of Kristalls, but this is one of the better samples. Fresh, dry almost crispy. And a bit unusually it is very wheaty with a citrusy edge. 081000 yespr (7785), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 7, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and yellow with a huge almost fully white head. Ester banana aroma. Flavour starts sweet with a distinct ester flavour of banana - followed by a brief more citric note. Goes gradually more dry towards the finish. Ends dry wheaty. MiP (6323), Flensburg, Germany Aug 5, 2005 Bottle. Metallic aroma. Clear golden colour, stable rocky white head. Flavour is like can be expected from a Kristallweizen, a bit boring. But quite bitter for a wheat beer, and a bit harsh. Emil (6077), Copenhagen, Denmark Jan 17, 2005 Bottle. Golden color with a white head. Yeasty light fruity aroma and yeasty appel taste. Light body and a sweet thin finish.
