A session wit with subtle additions of mango and kaffir lime. We’ve deconstructed a traditional style and rebuilt it using Asian flavours. Enjoy the balance of sweetness against a tangy bitterness. This refreshing wheat beer is perfect in the heat of Hong Kong.

Keg at Mikkeller Ari, Bangkok. Clear pale golden, small head. Mild citrusy nose with some coriander and notes of cabbage. Mid sweet with light-medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Very fruity, mild coriander and lemon peels. Low bitterness.

Bottle at BeerFest Asia, X Edition. Poured a hazy golden colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is banana yeast. The flavour is yeasty bitter with a crisp, light dry yeast, acidic, light clove spice, floral hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average to lively carbonation and a bubbly mouthfeel. Really struggled to drink this. It was way too light, over-carbonated and the floral hoppy finish was not to my liking.
