Flavour: 36/40
Those who are used to more direct German Weiss beers might appreciate the gentler flavours at play here. The softer malt perception along with the wheaty flavour are laced with a joyful fruitiness.
Mouthfeel: 8/10
Not quite as creamy as some Weiss beers, this one has a more medium-bodied mouthfeel that nonetheless finishes satisfyingly.
Overall Impression: 18/20
