Probably a little to malty to be compared to aventinus.
Very Good

I have tried this beer by the brewer, and was very impressed. Good wheatey body, mild esters. Impressive, and easy to drink.

I changed the Munich malt to German Pilsner Malt. It is a creates difference to the flavour that can be compared to Aventinus.
