Švyturio Baltas is a long-standing member of the traditional collection. This type of beer has a wide range of flavours and scents: aroma of banana, subtle notes of cloves and citrus fruits. The aroma of fruits goes perfect with a dry and quite sour taste of beer. The unfiltered and cloudy beer is recommended to be served in a chilled glass with a slice of lemon.

Yes, a big odd shaped bottle, I think its about 16 oz. Pours like a very good hefe, gunk on the bottom and all makes for a delicious looking swirling hypnotizing wheat beer. Flavor is very good, a fine example of german hefe. Bubble gum bananas and other mild spices none of which are overwelming. Much better than most american hefe attempts, not rudely ale like in any way, very pleasing to the palate. A very good example of what hefe should be like, almost comes across as friendly as a wit beir. Good bubbly CO2 is rather pleasant. Overall nice beer experience, you’d think this stuff came from Germany. No bitterness on the finish what so ever, simply lovely!

Pour is a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma has that clove and banana thing going on which is a good thing. Flavor is some banana and clove but not as strong as the aroma. After the swallow some wheat hits the tounge but kind watery in the end. Still, this is not as bad as some ratings on here. There are more than enough positive things going on with this beer to make it to the decent category.

Nice hazy, yellow color. Thin to no head. Flavor is a bit on the sour side, with a bitter finish to it. Some spice, banana, citrus flavors mingled together. Not nearly up to the standards of a German hefeweizen, but not a bad wheat beer. I’d try another.

Draught (Transylvanija, Vilnius) - Hazy golden/yellow with a small white head. Citrus aroma, which is rather tart, along with a light hint of spice. Lightly spicy taste with lemon featuring prominently. Not a bad attempt at a wheat beer by a brewery of this nature. 500ml Bottle - Hazy amber/gold in colour. Lemon meringue aroma with hints of banana and spice. Banana features in the taste with some slightly spicy hints and lemon. The finish is sweet with hints of banana

Bottle. Cloudy pale yellow with a medium white head. Nice aroma of banana, some bubblegum hints and a bit of spiciness. Sweetish-sourish flavor with decent fruity esters, citrus, wheat, bready hints and light spiciness. Medium-bodied. A quaffable pleasant Weizen.
