COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
“a galaxy of taste in every bottle” It is through the movement of the universe that life presents itself in transformation. It is in this spirit that we make ÜberSun, a tribute to the dynamic energy of summer. The alignment of wheat and barley through this hop-infused brew embodies the solar system itself... This may be a difficult task, but one our brewers revel in! They brew a galaxy of taste into every batch. ÜberSun is the ultimate experience that will challenge you with each sip. ÜberSun Imperial Summer Wheat Beer takes off where our Hop Sun finishes. Like it’s little brother, ÜberSun is clean and full of flavor, but don’t pull an Icarus– this is one big beer! Pour a glass or drink straight from the bottle, it’s meant to be consumed wisely with friends between summer solstice and autumnal equniox. 8.0% abv • 5ºL •

branspra (293) - Arlington, Virginia, USA - MAY 1, 2010
Bottle. Pours a hazy, yellow color with a moderately sized, frothy white head. Lacing is moderate. Aromas of bananas, sugar, hay and alcohol. Palate is very smooth throughout, with a nice crisp finish. Honestly drinks much lighter than the alcohol and smell would let you believe. Flavors of wheat and hay, with a nice banana finish. Good beer.

TheJvd (170) - NETHERLANDS - FEB 13, 2013
Bottle shared at De Molen tasting. Aroma is malts, wheat and cardboard. Flavour is sweet without much hops and some alcohol. Imperial wheat sounds interesting, but the bottle is too old.

MrHangover (1099) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - FEB 12, 2013
Bottle. Pours a clear golden beer with a small head, consisting out of big bubbles. Aroma has has some light buttery notes, some sour aromas with it as well. Not really sure about this aroma, might be too old. Flavour has light citric notes, some wheaty influences and an alcoholic base. A bit unbalanced, but decent.
