Grand Tasting @ The Harlequin, Sheffield.
Pours golden amber with a fine, creamy, beige film head. Aroma has rye, rather grainy and sweet. Light carbonation, okay mouthfeel. Flavour is far too sweet, but some rye is in there to give it a slightly balancing sour-bread feel. Okay. skortila (2907), Bunnik, Netherlands
