0.33l bottle. It does definitely not look like a wit or a wheat this. Light cloudy plum-red-brown in color and it has a small khaki top. On the nose it's quite caramel-sweet and almost fudge like. Quite fruity also, and there is perhaps even a swift of something reminding of diacetyl. In taste it's also quite caramel and malt-sweet, and it has a burned thing in the background as well. Suits it nicely. Quite fruity: I get peaches and mango. It's both light drinkable, light oxidized and quite tasty, but perhaps a tad to sweet, and definitely not yer average wheat beer. 27.09.2012

Tasted as Wijᵴzer Dry Hopped Special Edition Thick, rosy-beige head over cloudy chestnut coloured beer. Sweet, very caramelly nose, maltsugars and -syrup abundant, molasses, autumn leaves, Bock-like. More bitterish, much drier than the nose suggests, but again an outspoken autumn leaves flavour, again all as a Dunkler Bock. Wheatcharacter, however, not outspoken. Dry finish. Feels very carbonated, refreshing if served cool enough, but creamy MF. Pretty good. Christoffel beers tend to have that extra that a lot of similar craftbrews seem to miss, without having to resort being ostentatiously spectacular. As German craftbeer...

33 cl. swing top bottle @ home, bought @ Mitra. Brown red colour with a thin quickly disappearing tan head. Aroma of caramel, coffee, plums and blackberries. Taste is nicely bitter with more roastiness. Typical Christoffel mouthfeel and aftertaste; at first not sensational but then the deepness and matureness of the beer impresses. Great bock!

Hazy light amber golden colour, white head. Aroma of butter, light malts, diacetyl, quite an off (schraal) aroma. Light sweet malty flavour, light butter. Finish quite off too. Did not finish.
The first time I really don’t like a Christoffel beer. Pitty.
(Draught @ De Beyerd, Breda)

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Mitra. Hazy old yellow with a white head. Aroma of yeast, floral hops and ripe fruits, even more fruity than the normal Nobel ofcourse thanks to the extra hops. Medium bitter with a long fullfilling aftertaste. As I said in my review of the normal Nobel: ’Strong Pale Lager’ doesn’t do enough justice to Christoffel Nobel to describe this excellent underfermented beer.
