Golden colored, little white head. Malty, grainy, sweet, even caramelly aroma with hints of toffee. Thin to medium bodied, slightly watery palate. Flavor is also nicely sweet with toffee and fruits, still some carbonation missing. Aftertaste has slight lemon with caramel.

0.5 l bottle. Pours copper with beige head with nice lacing. Aroma is caramel malt, some hops. Slight hint of honey in the aroma, as well. Taste is full maltiness up front, some grassy and herbal bitterness, as well. Some lingering bittereness. Excellent and extremely well balanced for a lager.
