Best before end 10-2016. Quite spicy, but still clearly a hefeweizen. Creamy banany, bitterish, soft. Don't really detect the smoke, though.

Hazy amber beer, big pale cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has good fine carbonation. Smooth malts, some creamy sweetness. Modest fruits into mild candy fruits. Light dry finish. Not bad, couldn’t detect any smoke and I’m not missing it.

Aftertaste dry malty, fruity touch, wheaty, bit bready and light pepper in the finish, medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, quite pleasant.

0.33 l bottle, bottled in October 2015, shared by markoijelena, thanks! Slightly hazy, golden amber with a frothy, tan to white head. Sweetish, slightly smoky, yeasty-spicy and a little fruity aroma of banana, cloves, smoked ham, some honey and hints of honeydew. Sweetish, yeasty-spicy, slightly smoky and minimally fruity taste of banana, cloves, smoked ham, a bit of honey and some honeydew, followed by a short, slightly bitter, yeasty-spicy finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very nice!

Bottle shared on th the 42nd floor - big thanks to Fergus. Pours mostly clear gold with a creamy, white head. The nose has bread you wheat, white grape, berries. Medium sweet flavor with white grape gummies, simple wheat bread, faint toffee. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, more ripening fruits, berries, light doughy wheat bread. Simplistic but nicely balanced and tasty.

Bottle thanks to Fergus. It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, banana, clove, hay, light spice, wheat and dull smoke. The taste is crisp, bitter, sweet banana, spice, dull smoke, straw, grass, lemon peel and sherbet with a dry, banana finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. A touch sweet perhaps, but overall not bad.
