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.

50 cl bottle from Tosan0. Hazy yellow color with a modest white head, fair persistence. Aroma is dough, yeast, banana, clove and orange peel.Texture is milky, kinda sliuggish and a but muddy. Flavor overall is ok, citrusy aftertaste, oddly soft carbonation, smooth finish. Average in the style, decent weizen from Lithuania.

Bottle @ home shared by kermis. A bit hazy pale yellow collor, huge white head. Aroma is wheat, yeasty lemon and lightly yeasty sweetish banana. Tastes about the same: wheat, a hint of artificial lemon, slightly sweetish. Drinkable.

Can from the Polish Delicatessen, opposite The Barum Top Inn, Halifax. It’s decent enough out of the can, so I’d imagine better from a bottle. It’s fairly light with its hefeweizen character, but no less drinkable for it, with banana dominant in both from and taste, and lingering in the palate. Hazy pale golden-orange in appearance.

Bottle from lithuanian friends. Pours hazy, bright yellow with white head. Aroma of banana, cloves, slight caramel and yeast. Maybe a touch of rubber. Taste is on the sweeter side with caramel, banana, wheat and slight lemon and white pepper. Quite decent weizen without anything special or memorable.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. A quid. Cloudy, pale orange. Quite dense, lasting, thick, white head. Aroma is yeasty, herby sweet. Some clove. Light spice. Taste is soft sweet. Some lemon pith bitterness. Thin body. Has an artificial sweetener thing going on. Bit of an aspirin thing, too. Curious bittersweet finish. Smells ok, but I didn’t like this much overall. Even at a quid a pop.

Typical wit notes. Phenolic. Banana and clove. Coriander. Really benchmark. Reminds me of Hoegarden before they ruined it.
