motelpogo (4360), Plzen, Czech Republic Feb 25, 2007 bottled, brewtopia 06. i was quite curious to try the aged and unfiltered redback. murky yellow with a persistent fluffy head, traces of sediment. plenty of banana in the aroma and a hint of lemon peel. quite fizzy after spending a year in the bottle but not unpleasantly so. some light vanilla, light acidity, not bad bluevegie (1853), Perth, Australia Aug 9, 2005 Soft cloves in the taste, lemon zest, light in body and easy drinking but maybe a little too lemony for me to drink several. Average size head that almost lasted the distance. Some lacing. Pale lemon/straw coloured body. 2nd Glass was served with a wedge of lemon, which made the head lasted a lot longer?!? The original is more golden in colour, less cloves and a little bit more restrained even a little harsh.
