Review and Tasting

Sampled on 12/12/2011

Appearance:

Cloudy, pale golden with moderate white head with good retention.

Aroma:

Malty wheat nose with lemon zest, clove spice and light yeastiness.

Taste:

Smooth, almost creamy mouthfeel. Slightly sweet, yeasty wheat malt palate with delicate lemon and clove spice adding character. Faint confectioner’s banana flavour.

Aftertaste:

Dry, yeasty finish with faint lingering zesty lemon.
