Can at a ChrisO tasting - London. Pours hazy yellow with a fine, white film head. Wheat and straw in the aroma. Light sweet flavor, faint wheat, some cereal. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Somewhat zippy on the finish, tangy wheat, light lemon, moderate yeast. A pretty poor hefeweizen.

Draught (shared by Lövis). Reddish ambery brown colour with a mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is caramel, mild toast, toffee and some mild leathery and metallic notes. Flavour is similar with bigtime wooden notes too. As it warms up the metallic notes get more evident.

Smell of yeast, banana and a faint of smoke(?). Hazy amber colour, very little head. Aroma of apple, banana, other fruit, some honey and yeast. Mildly sweet and medium sour. Fizzy carbon but low on it. Pretty nice surprise, didn’t expect this much.
