This beer specialty pours cloudy honey with nice white, rocky head which stays for long. The aroma smells like banana, bubble gum, fruit and cloves. It features a medium body with high carbonisation. The taste is lightly sweet and dominated by a banana flavor. The aftertaste is slightly hoppy and a
tiny bit bitter.
Wheat beer in general usually is top-fermented, brewed with a large proportion of wheat relative to the amount of malted barley. The two main varieties are Weissbier, based on the German tradition, and Witbier, based on the Belgian tradition
The brewery Egerer was founded in 1919 by Wilhelm Egerer. Heinrich Egerer, the founder's son, took over the company, which at that time only filled lemonades and bottled water, in 1929. Heinrich Egerer acquired the brewing right in 1931 and brewed beer at the location for the first time. The following year the company began to deliver lemonade by truck as a Grokj home service to private households. In 1973 the private brewery already supplied 40,000 households with 50 different types of drink from six depots. In the early 2000s, the Grokj beverage home service supplied over 100 trucks a week to around 50,000 regular customers from the company's headquarters in Großköllnbach and eight other branches.
