25 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a fizzy white head. Small yeast floaties. Cardboardish and caramel malty aroma. Flavour is dry malty with a light mix of caramel and cardboard. Light yeasty metallic touch before the finish. Ends bitter and slight caramel malty, yet with a persisting yeasty metallic note.

Hazy pale yellow color, lots of floating yeast, mostly vanishing white head. Cardboardish, wheaty and grainy nose. Wheaty, grassy, a bit banana-like flavor. Not very enjoyable, too grainy and papery. I don’t think that this is really "pale lager".

Bottled at Petalax Beer Festival. Lightly hazy golden, small head. Fruit ynose with equal doses of vanilla, metal and orange. Too light bodied to stick together, the thin mouthfeel makes the flavours transparent and vague. It passes through my sensory organs and I only get slight nuances of flavour. What is is good, but it’s just to shy.

Bottled (Thanks Bov!). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is hay, wheat malts, some sweetness. Flavour is hay, wheat, paper, quite mouthdrying. Some fruity and yeasty notes also as it gets warmer. A quite alternative Witbier.
