750 ml bottle at Svenska Pubben. A hazy yellow colour with abundant white head. Flowery, fruity, spicy aroma. Coriander and other spices as well as malt in the taste. Finishes quite dry. I am absolutely going to drink this again.

750ml Bottle. Pours slightly hazy golden orange with a bubbly white head that lasts for a while. Aroma is spicy with notes of yeast, coriander, clove, orange and doughy malt. Flavour is a little less spicy and a bit fruitier, with apples, pineapple and grapefruit noticeable, but is otherwise very similar to the aroma. Medium body with a highly carbonated yet smooth mouthfeel, this is a very good beer from Chouffe and good value as well.
