Frank Turner has created his brew to be a modern twist on the traditional wheat beer encompassing citrus and orange flavours to create a refreshing brew. Designed to accompany long afternoons, this 4.8% Kristallweizen has a crispness that will refresh and subtleties to engage the palate.
Work began on the recipe back in March of this year with Frank joining the Signature Brew team in an extensive tasting session. Having travelled the world playing shows, Frank’s knowledge of European and world beers was drawn into sharp focus by Head Brewer, Tom Bott. The burgeoning wheat beer range on the continent proved to be of most interest, with their crisp taste and easy drinking style.

Bottle. An almost clear one, golden in color and with a small, white head. The aroma is rather malty, with a little fruityness and butterscotch notes. Citrus hints too. The flavor has some bitterness, but it’s mostly on the fruity and malty side. Medium body, quite dry, and with a pleasant carbonation level. Short finish. Nothing interesting going on here, not very good actually. 140418

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear light amber with a frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is yeast and light banana. The flavour is light bitter, light sweet with a yeast, malt, citrus, light hop bitter palate and a short bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. An English take on a witbier and with the added bitterness it works well for me. It’s half way towards a pale ale.
