Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4

(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy, golden beer with a decent and stable, white head. Lightly sour, citrusy aroma. Weak fruity notes in the flavour, but mainly this is just plain tart - if not to say sour. Not a very well made Hefe. 011005

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful amber colour with a nice, creamy head. Sweetish, malty aroma. Decent body with flavours of sweet malt. Discreet bitterness. Brewed by a group of disabled people in an "Integrationsfirma" - they did an excellent job. 170905

Dark amber, tanned foamy head. Honeyish, nutty and delicate hoppy and spicy aroma. Medium to light body. Focus on spicy malt (nuttyness), but has a quite elegant hop counterpoint. Dry wooden bitterhop aftertaste. Rather nice.

(bottle) Hazy and pale yellow colour with a medium foamy white head. Banana-fruity nose with yeasts. Malty and yeasty taste with an intense banana note, no spiciness. Short and light but nevertheless aromatic and refreshing finish. Well-made. Thanks pivnizub for the sample.

Swing-top bottle: Orangey to cloudy yellow coloured, mid-sized fluffy steady head; fruity and yeasty nose, impressive citrusy aroma with a tinge of vanilla; the initial fruity-sweetish and yeasty taste turns into a drier, a bit tart fruity finish with a tinge of hoppiness. Pleasant mouthfeel. A fine Weizen !

Swing-top bottle: Fluffy brownish head, dark amber to reddish coloured; milk-chocolate in the aroma with a tinge of fruitiness and traces of roasted malts; light, sweetish (roasted) malty taste, medium bodied, quite soft; slightly bitter-malty finish with traces of roasted malts again. O.K., but a bit too sweet and plain........

Swing-top bottle: Clear, amber to orangey coloured, medium-sized, lasting off-white head; fresh floral hoppiness in the nose, traces of caramel and honey; sweetish-malty beginning; moderate bitter-malty taste, ending in a long lasting aromatic bitter-sweet finish. Surprise: a modern "Hausbrauerei", producing individual and tasty brews !
