Slightly cloudy orange beer with medium head. Aroma is slightly complex: fruity hops, light witbier-like spicyness and slightly malty sweetness. Flavour is lager-like but still aromatic and nicely bitter. Quite easy to drink with balanced carbonation. Okells Maclir is refreshing beer with nice bitterness but flavour needs something more to make this more interesting.

500ml Bottle (Õllesummer 2008,Tallinn) - Golden in colour with a white head. Citrus aroma with a hint of peaches in syrup. Hoppy and refreshing taste with a mild but fairly long lasting bitterness featuring grapefruit and a hint of lemon.

Clear gold with huge, off-white head, very finely lacing. VERY nice nose with hops, lunaria , kafir leaf, wheat and grain sheaf, hay. Again a very fresh, hoppy (my guess are the NZL hops...); just bitter main taste, perfumey, and a soft, mineral water with sweetness and some salt. Light bodied, but nowhere empty - mineral water quality. Definitely one of the BEST wheatbeers I’ve ever tasted.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful, clear amber with an off-white head. Lightly tart, malty nose. Medium-bodied, some nuts and caramel with a rather dry and hoppy finish. A wheat beer, but not that different from a straightforward Bitter. Thanks to tbone_ for this 010506 and 210908

Clear copper brown, rocky white head, lace. Flowery hops, herbs, lemon in the aroma. Trefoil, flowery hoppy flavor. Wheat rounds the corners but otherwise quite ordinary British bitter. Medium-bodied. Bitter aftertaste.

A yellow beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is perfumated combined with notes of wheat and hops. The flavor is of quite hoppy to start with but then turns to wheat, perfume with slight reminisence of soap, the end is sweet perfumated, while the body is thin. I can’t really make my mind up about this one - it definately has some really good qualities, but also some drawbacks.
