This light, light-colored wheat beer, deliberately brewed with a slightly stronger texture, achieves a rich aromatic diversity and fullness. A pronounced hop addition also ensures a complex flavor. Grain and fruit notes combine in a refreshingly summery balance.
The nose impresses with expressive fruit aromas of ripe banana, passion fruit, and pineapple. These are complemented by subtle spices: allspice, clove, and star anise. Grain notes and a delicate yeast finish round out the extensive aroma spectrum.
Ripe fruit notes reappear on the palate. Dried fruit (apricot) blends with tropical fruit (a subtle banana). In addition, there is a subtle, rounded hop flavor that contributes to the beer's harmonious flavor. A subtle citrus freshness provides an invigorating mouthfeel.

Tapped: Golden, cloudy, stable creamy off-white head; moderate fresh-sourish citrussy nose with a light wheaty-yeasty touch; moderate sweet-sourish flavour, soft. medium bodied; sweetish-sourish lemony finish with a light tartness in the aftertaste. Really good and refreshing.....
