Commercial Description:
Top yeast fermentation gives Krouvi a fresh fruitiness reminiscent of wheat beer, which combined with well-balanced hops generates a flavour that is pure enjoyment. The full and fruity taste of Krouvi is based on barley malt, wheat, oat and rye fermented with top yeast, which is also used in German wheat beers.

Bottled. Clear but still with yeast in the bottom of the bottle. Nice head. Banana esters, a great weizen. Some oat in the aftertaste. As tbone says in his review, it is really nice to have a new wheat beer from a Finnish macro brewery.

bottled. rusty reddish colour with not much of a head. curious raspberry aroma, soft texture, quite sweet with some raspberry flavour. not too bad, just could use some bitterness or sourness to balance it out

Bottle, 5.2%. Strange small, a little spicy with some sewer. Salty weirdness. Hazy amber colour. Wheaty mouthfeel and aftertaste. A little sourness, but that is overshadowed by the spices and a sour fruitiness.

Not my cup of tea. This is sort of sweet, banana-like, grainy porridge, weissbier thing. It’s too hybrid of everything for me. I actually didn’t know it’s retired. Too bad, since it was kinda interesting experiment.

<i>courtesy of oh6gdx</i> - pours a hazy amber-orange colour, decent white head and a nice lace; aroma of bread and fruits bubblegum; very carbonated, medium-bodied, short and moderately dusty, bready finish
