Bottle. Light hazy yellow colour with a white head. An unusual sweet and sour aroma. Yeasty, light sweet wheat, some fruity notes and and a strange sour flavour. Unusual german hefeweizen, but a cool story behind the beer.

An unclear orange beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet dusty combined with notes of prunes and oranges. The flavor is dry dusty with primary notes of old fruits, peaches and oranges.

Pale brown/yellow. Cloudy. Very refreshing fruity flavour, somewhat sourish. Very thirst-quenching

Very lifht and clear color. Slight sour aroma and a taste of flowers and spice with a hint of phenol. Definetly a interesting beer - it does not taste like any modern german wheat i have encountered.

A few bottles of beer have been picked up from a wreck in the Baltic where thay have been since October 11th 1915 when the german freighter SS Nicomedia was sunk by a British sub. Slottskällan has reproduced the beer using the yeast from the recovered bottles. It is a wheat beer but not of any type I have encountered before. It is cloudy and pale orange. It has a strong vanilla aroma, is full bodied, round and fruity. Comparing to their hefeweizen, Vit, it is not as refreshing, but more filling.
The original beer from 1915, which I tasted in september 2000 was hazily dark blonde, and had tart lambic-ish notes, probably from the aging, but was in no way destroyed.

Made with yeast found in a shipwreck at the bottom of the Baltic. Light, wheaty and very acidic in both nose and palate.
