Of course, beers of this type do not feature the cloudiness of their close family members; Kristall Weizen is an attractive and clear (thus the name) hue of dark yellow. Poured aggressively in a weissenbier glass, the head is initially large but quickly recedes, as expected, to a small but steadfast ring. A small amount of lace adhered to the sides of the glass. On the nose, Kristall Weizen is soapy and features, of course, the yeasty aroma of cloves and bananas. The taste reminds me of bubblegum. The cloves, bananas and bubblegum linger gently on the palate. I would recommend Schmucker's Kristall Weizen. The flavours and aroma are like other good weissen or hefebiers but not quite as pronounced.

This brew pours perfectly with a crystal clear golden body, and an ample amount of bright white and frothy cranium.

The aroma is straight up perfume and floral.

I detect orange and smoky like flavors here.

This brew is crisp and clean, no doubt. Very refreshing and well balanced.
