A new addition to Krug this year and I was pleasantly surprised to see it, but I'm starting to think that Krug believes that beer begins and ends in Germany. Gotta cater to what the people want I guess, but i would have loved for them to come out with a Pale Ale or something more extravagant. Pours a nice cloudy (at least we know it's unfiltered) golden with a large 2-3 finger white head into appropriate glassware. Smell is loaded with grassy wheat notes but I also detected some sweet aromas. Taste isn't as grassy as I expected, the grassiness is rather subdued, but there is a strong bannana presence to this brew. Clean finish. Mouthfeel is creamy like all of Krug's beers (dispensed with a sprinkler?). Decent drinkability as well. This could become one of their flagships as people seem to be enjoying it.
