500ml bottle. Cloudy, dark amber colour with small to average, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Herbal and grassy, hoppy aroma, wheaty malty background, a touch of mint, hay, woodruff, minimally funky yeasty overtones give an impression of possible infection. Taste is slightly earthy, herbal-grassy and minimally fruity hoppy, minimally diluted, wheaty malty basis, hints of woodruff, hay, a touch of mint.
Watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to coarse, scattered, mildly prickly carbonation.
A bit strange, in no way typical, actually more Wheat Ale than Hefeweizen - so-so.

0.5 l bottle from 'Beerdome', best before end of 2026. Hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, quite fruity-floral, gently yeasty-spicy aroma of pear, banana, lemon peel and some clove. Moderately sweet, slightly bitter, quite fruity-floral and gently yeasty-spicy taste of lemon peel, pineapple, pear, grains, some banana and a touch of clove, followed by a short, moderately bitter, gently dry finish. Almost medium-bodied, quite effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Refreshing hoppy Weizen, quite dry for the style and not overly yeasty, leaning towards wheat ale.

330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, amber colour with huge, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Slightly zesty, citrusy fruity and minimally waxy, hoppy aroma, caramel malty background, hints of orange peel, grapefruit rind, some tangerine, old lemon. Taste is bitter, zesty, citrusy fruity hoppy, caramel malty basis with some honey-like residual sweetness and a minimally spicy touch, notes of lemon peel, orange peel, grapefruit rind, a touch of liquorice and rubber.
Water texture, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation.
Quite bitter, somehow old school Californian due to the rubber and liquorice touch, (the lack of piney notes speaks against this appraisal), has definitely some character - not bad.
