Oct 15, 2009 2009-10-13. Crisp dark amber body with a tiny beige head. Aroma of fruity cardboard, light touch of cooked vegetables. Flavour is similar, mild fruity malt base, touch of astringent notes, brief toasty malt. Average palate is a touch flat. Not sure if its the beer or me today but I did not care for this one much.

Oct 13, 2009 tap at Bar Volo, this poured an understated carbonation and a light orange colour, with little but pleasant white head. Neutral aroma, and a tad below average mouthfeel. Rather understated bitterness, drinkable nevertheless.
