330 ml bottle. Unclear yellow/golden body with a medium sized white head. Quite mild aroma, but wheat and banana/cloves and coriander is notable. Mild, refreshing flavor of pale malt, wheat, some citric fruit, coriander and banana. Medium body and average aftertaste. A decent, refreshing wheat without anything extra added to the experience.

Smooth dry beginning. Fresh, round. Hints of spices, fresh with a smooth but dry yeast. The body has hints of grain, round and fresh. Mild, moderate bitter fruity herbal aftertaste with a nice smooth layer of yeast! Refreshing with depth.
