A peanut and banana aroma hang over a soft pillow of a white head, which sits on deep golden, hazy hefeweizen. Gentle fruitiness in the mouth leads to a little banana and on to hints of peanut in the finish. Voyager should be enjoyed chilled and is suitable for pairing with spicy dishes, especially chilli!
The story behind the beer:
Recently, Frau Ortrud Ulrich - head librarian at the German Bier Bibliothek, the library of beer knowledge on Roundworld - arrived at her office to find a small pile of empty peanut husks and banana skins along with a significant amount of Discworld Beer sitting amongst piles of carefully sorted returned books. A hastily scribbled note, found along with these items, read simply “Ooook”.
Frau Ulrich of course reached out to us. So far we have been able to piece together the only part of the puzzle. It would seem that Unseen University's Librarian has traversed L-space while bringing with him a stash of cans of of L-space Voyager. We can only imagine he meant for us to get them into the hands of you, the Roundworld fans.

Oook eek ook. Ook.*
Soft and foamy. Taste is fairly bitter at first, with actually a good peanut flavor. Banana aroma's at the back end. Massive bonus for art.
