| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of pivnizub. Clear pale golden. Surprisingly inviting nose- hoppy, biscuity, subtle with hints of hemp, candied apricot and gooseberries. Good taste. Pleasant bitterness. Fruity. Medium bodied with a nice balance. Dry finish which is reminiscent of sorbet, white pepper and green tea. Extremely pleasant with a huge amount of character. I’m against the grain.Thanks a lot pivnizub!
