Hazy medium golden, huge frothy white to off-white head, good retention, fair lacing. Aroma wheat, yeast, lemon, light banana, spicy notes. Taste medium sweet and bitter, wheat, yeast, lemon, banana, spicy notes. Mild sweetbitter aftertaste, earthy notes. Medium body, bit watery to oily texture, average carbonation. Refreshing, interesting wheat ale with a twist, quite good.

Bottle @ Fox & Hounds, Sønderborg. Pours hazy dark straw with airy bit stable white head. Clear aroma of malt and yeast, with hints of fruit. Sweetish flavour of fruit and flowers, with notes of yeast and malt and bitter, hoppy touches. Bitter and estery aftertaste. Not bad.

330ml bottle. Pours a misty gold, thin white head. Aroma is exotic fruit and faint hefe yeast. Taste is surprisingly flavoursome for St Austell, dominated by the hefe yeast with some fruity flourishes from, I assume, the Boabab present. A really nice, smooth, interesting wheat beer.
