Pours a foamy creamy slightly dense 1+ finger head with good retention, fair streaming bubbles, a bit of lacing, slight hazy semi clear lemony yellow color

Nose starts like a Witbier crossed with Berlinerweisse, creamy wheat, doughy, cake batter like, floral phenol spices, then into big lemon, lemonade, lemon cookies, a hint of lemongrass, some lactic acid creamy like where the Berliner kicks in, citrus rind

Taste starts fairly tart, fresh juicy lemon and lemonade up front, more of the lacto creamy sour yoghurt like Berliner notes, more phenol floral flowery spices, juicy tart citrus fruit, a hint of the lemongrass and grass wheat notes, citrus rind, faint pepper on the back end with a bit of pepper spice, a bit more lemon cookie batter on the mild flemmy tart finish

Mouth is med bod, creamy doughy and tart mild flemmy, higher effervescent carb, a bit of pepper spice tingle

Overall a fun an interesting beer, nice additions without destroying the base beer, def a great summer beer I'll have to get more of next summer
