THIS BEER IS
Our take on the classic German Kristallweizen. A clear German wheat beer, layers of bubblegum and vanilla perfectly balanced with the American and New Zealand hops.

BREWER'S TIP
Ferment at higher or lower temperatures to select the esters that will create clovelike or banana-like flavours.
