Impression: I have to admit I wasn’t expecting much from this but generally speaking I’ve never had a bad beer from Krug. This is a good serviceable Weißbier with just a hint of banana, which is fine by me. It’s got a nice fruitiness to it and the yeast while there isn’t overpowering. The finish is lingering with most of the banana coming through. It’s not up there with the best but if you’re a Weißbier drinker, I wouldn’t hesitate to order one.
