On draught (van Korff, Meschede): Deep amber, almost rust red, cloudy, huge foamy "rusty" head; A bit malty, but mainly fruity (citrus, apples(?)) nose; apple taste with a quite dry, a bit sourish, finish. Well made.

500 ml bottle, bought in Germany. ABV is 5.4%. Hazy amber colour, large slightly off-white head. "Absolutely fabulous" aroma, orgasmic in its abundancy of fruitiness and spiciness. Notes of leather too. Flavour is bit more restrained, still very nice with all the traditional hefe characteristics, wheaty and yeasty with cloves but also some caramel and brown bread. Aftertaste is, like with most wheat beers, very moderate but nice. Can you expect a hefeweizen to be much better than this?

A light orange beer with a huge white head. The is sweet wheaty with primary notes going in the citrusy way, but also hints of banana, and hops. The flavor is clean wheaty with medium notes of banana, but also some citrus notes. The end is dry wheaty. I like the cleaness of this one - I believe it is the best Kristallweizen I’ve had.
