0.33L bottle, fluffy stable heas, dark golden colour, aromas of dried apricot with citrus, vanila, malt and manure, Flavours of orange, mandarine, sweetish malt and cinamon, quite dry with an empathic bitterness which is a touch coarse, bitter and sour aftertaste. Good beer.

Bottle. A strong aroma of citrus with a sweet background, the finish is a little bit sour. The head is gigantic, white and foamy, it is rather fast disappearing. The body is pale yellow. The taste is acidic and light bitter. The body is light to medium, with a lot of carbonation and a dry body.

Pours crystal clear amber with huge frothy long lasting head with some lacing. Aroma is yeasty and spicy in a refreshing way. Flavour is also slightly spicy but otherwise rather flat. Very high carbonation which poorly fills up the thin body.

Bottle. Pours a huge white collapsing head, and murky gold color. Aroma is almost a white beer- nose of sweetness, lemon peel, coriander. Taste spicy and flat, sticky mouthfeel. Certainly get the warm alcohol about midway. Nice.
