11-FEB-2016. Yep, still good... flavourful classic weizen profile, on the sweeter side. 7-4-7-3-14=3.5
19-AUG-2015. A newer batch is much better, without the flat carbonation and richer flavour. Pretty much in the ballpark of a good German hefeweizen. 7-3-7-3-14=3.4
17-MAY-2015. TAP from brewery. Deep amber and cloudy, medium frothy head - too small and bubbly for a weizen. Rich fruity aroma - more pine-apple than banana, quite spicy/clovy too. Smells pretty much like a classic weizen, until later, when you get some malty biscuits too. The taste is a bit too flat - like a weizen - just not so intense. It could be the carbonation, that is too low for the style. Otherwise, some fruit, wheat tartness, some malt sweetness too. Soft body, low-to-medium carbonation. 7-2-6-3-12=3

JAN-2019. DRAFT at Craft Baza, Almost clear golden, pillowy white head. Clean bready doughy aroma with light lemony / lemondrops undertones. Nice, but the lemondrops feel cheapish at a certain (temperature) point. The taste is dry and clean, maybe too much so - lacks a little bit of substance (some malts, that is). On the other hand, the cleanliness of the mouth-feel, the crispness and the clarity of the spicy herbal hop rise no concerns at all. Solid brew. 6-4-7-4-14=3,5.
MAY-2015. TAP from the brewery. Bright yellow with a slight haze, a creamy head with good retention. Aroma is hop-forward: nice hops - tart fruity, gooseberry, grassy and lemon rind? Just a touch of yeast and, if you really try, some honeyish malty notes. The taste is very clean, dry, a bit of that fruity lemony tartness (but not in a bad way). Solid hop bitterness, clean, herbal and spicy finish. A hint of doughy yeast here too, but nothing objectionable. A good quality lager and probably the best beer in Moldova at the moment. 6-3-6-3-14=3,2/
