Bottled. Slightly hazy orange colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is caramel, fruits, mild alcohol and grass. Flavour is spices, tropical fruits and some slight notes of cooked vegetables.

(Bottled, 0.75l) Darkish golden with a smallish, lightly lacy head. Aroma of dried fruit, toffee and some grainy alcohol. Tropical-fruity flavor with sweetish, pale maltiness and some yeast, with low bitterness. Some mild roastiness, and smooth alcohol in the finish. Yeast smooths out the alcohol. Medium-bodied with quite low carbonation. A bit tasteless and stuffy, but otherwise balanced.

Bottle: Poured s orange amber with thin white head. The aroma was fruit and strong acidic smell. Very sweet to the tongue but subsides to leave a honey finish. Very interesting.

This beer has a dark pale body - hue apperance and a fine white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the a bottle and it had a not much carbonic acid. The initial flavor taste is sweet with a light korriander afther tast and you can smells a little bit of honey.
