Completely clear golden coloured body with a bit of a honey and orange glow with a large, frothy slightly off-white head and a trillion small bubbles rising from the bottom and sides which show very nicely. Aroma of wheat, yeast, coriander seed, curacao, soap and a touch of light caster sugar - very nice smells indeed. Light to Medium-bodied; Chewy wheatie flavour at first with a good citrus and curacao note, a ton of light spices and a very nice complex yeast strain picked up at the tail end. Aftertaste shows a good complex wheat with light sugars, some bananas and even a very pale and drying hop kick showing at the end. Overall, a very nice and complex kristall - great to sample as most breweries wouldn’t attempt a beer like this and even more wouldn’t get it this right. A superb beer for the summer and one that should be sampled if you are lucky enough to find it. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Opera House Gourmet in Manassas, Virginia on 12-March-2011 with a Best By Date of 11/2010, sampled at home in Washington on 05-May-2011.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a yellow-gold color with a huge foamy yellow-white head that lingered and produced good lacing. The aroma was sour and tangy with notes of citrus, bubblegum and must. The flavor was tar and tangy with citrus, bubblegum, faint banana, sugar, nougat, vanilla and must coming through. The finish was medium length with tangy lemon and nougat lingering. Medium body. Decent.

Yeasty nose full of cracked wheat and cherry undertones. Dingy gold, thin head. Grassy wheat flavor. Celery finish. Refreshing and pleasantly bitter, but not a good kristal.
