I believe that it is a classical German lager, close to a Dortmunder helles, malty, there is a side really metalic, some hop, correct, 26.03.17, drinking it at Bonfol, buying it at Freiburg am Breisgau

0.33 l bottle from 'EDEKA' (Breisach am Rhein), best before May 2026. Clear, pale golden yellow with a thin, fluffy, quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, gently fruity aroma of lemonade and some grains. Quite sweet, moderately bitter, a little sourish, quite fruity and a bit artificial taste of lemonade, some grains and traces of corn flakes, followed by a short, moderately bitter, minimally tartish finish. Thin body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Drinkable but not that great, even for the style.

Kristallweizen from Baden-Württemberg, thanks tderoeck for sharing. Small-bubbled, medium, snow white, opening head (far from the rocky, pillowy heads I expect from any Weizen) over an evidently clear, pale yellow-golden robe. Aroma of banana candy in a 'dryish' kind of way, shortbread, field flowers, chamomile, spring water, bubblegum, hints of clove, vanilla and soggy white bread. Cleanish onset, pronounced isoamylacetate with banana, pineapple and chewing gum effects - but nothing one would not expect in this genre; clean and 'pure' mouthfeel, slick wheatiness with a dash of sweetish white bread, minerally carbonated, sweetish and smooth, adding subtle hints of clove-like phenols and chamomile-like floral hops in the end, the latter providing only the most minimal bitterness - but again, as one tends to expect from a Weizen. Smooth, sweetish and simple but balanced example of a filtered Weissbier - a style one should not expect much complexity from, at least not in comparison with the unfiltered blonde Hefeweizens it is derived from. That said, it feels just a bit too sweet and straightforward even for a Kristallweizen...
