Wheat Inspired by the white washed cliff dwelling of Santorini. Light blonde coloured lager with flavours of yellow fruits and hints of honey. Notes of pineapple, banana, lemon and unripe bitter orange all come through in this rich refreshing beer."

Bottle bought at a Kalamata hypermarket, drunk in Kalamaki under the orange trees. Hazy yellow-amber with a very tall, lasting head. Aroma of banana, citrus, and honey. Flavor is much more balanced and tasty than the black beer. Creamy mouthfeel, nice citrus touch like the US method of enjoying Paulaner Weißbier (with a lemon or orange slice). The honey adds a little sweetness and body. This is super refreshing after having run uphill a few hundred vertical meters into the olive trees earlier!

Bottle that I picked up in Patras, Greece. Had this Friday 10th December 2021 listening to Steve Lamaqs Evening Session on 6 Music, we had Fish, Chips and Mushy Peas for tea tonight. A little boiled lozenge aroma, sweet in the mouth, a little wheaty with a subtle fruity tang. Struggling to hit the heady height of simply being ok.

Bottle, Sklaventis supermarket, Fira. Just slightly hazy golden, larger white foamy head, lasting. Quite citric nose, soury, vinous and slightly spicy. Gently sweet start, slight bitterness, slightly citric. Light, fresh. Interesting and not bad.

Uit een flesje in de Ierse pub in Kamarai, Santorini. Redelijk, maar geen bijzonder wit bier.
