An unfiltered lager beer produced from a recipe using wheat malt. Baltika No. 8 Wheat Beer has all the qualities of this beer variety: a thick and dense head, as well as a mild, fruity aroma with notes of spices and a mild sweetness.

[1] Review by HonkeyMoFo from Denver, CO, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/18/2008 2:50:32 AM)
"Pours a hazy yellow-orange with thick white head and excellent lace. Fresh aroma of hops, malts, citrus, and spices. The mouthfeel is thin at first, but expands and is tangy, smooth, and full-bodied. Flavors of wheat malts, light hops, citrus, and light spices. More than I expected."

"Nice hazy yellow pour, with a creamy light head that hung around a bit. Flavor of bananas and cloves. Not hoppy, no after taste, no bitterness. Nice crisp, malty beer."

"This brew poured a hazy golden colour with a big white head. Had a very nice pleasent wheaty aroma. Maintains a distinct bananna characteristic throughout the beer. Lots of tropical fruit flavor."

"A nice beer. Has a hearty wheat flavoring. Is relativly weak compared to most russian beers, but its a very nice hefeweisen. It pour light brown with a nice head. It has a very nice flavor, and has no need for a lemon. Definitely worth a try."
