- Pour: The Wünderbier pours a slightly cloudy, bright golden-yellow with a 1-finger, foamy white head that leaves sticky lacing behind.
- Nose: The nose combines malty sweetness, crackery grains, and grassy hops. There are aromas of light biscuit, freshly cut grass, lemon zest, light honey, and soft caramel.
- Taste: Following the nose, the taste of the Wünderbier is a grassy, biscuity, slightly sweet traditional Kölsch-style. There are notes of lemon, honey, barley, cracked wheat, dry crackers, a hoppy, grassy bite and very subtle caramel.
- Mouthfeel: Light to medium in body with good carbonation, the mouthfeel is with a dry, yet crisp, clean finish.
Cheers!!
