Oakes (8058), gone rambling, Vietnam Feb 4, 2009 Dull straw with a loose head. Rich, woody, citrusy and lightly bready aroma. Really dry, with just pale malt underpinning. This brings the bitterness to the fore in a big way. Lightly fruity. There’s a faint oxidized character that is stale and cardboardy. Beershine (2678), Hue, Vietnam Feb 2, 2009 Warm hazy golden, leaves lots of lacing. Fruity fun aroma. Smooth carbonation and nice quaffability. Fruity body. Some citrus, a lot of hop bitterness in the vein of orange peel and douglas fir. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Jan 18, 2009
