33cL bottle, purchased @ Struise. Pours a slightly hazy straw golden color, capped with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is primarily grain, with bread dough, yeast, and a hint of orange. Flavor begins with grain and yeast, with background notes of orange, herbs, overripe fruit, and some earthy hops. Mild bitterness, earthy and a bit metallic, sticks to the palate for a while. I echo the sentiments of many other raters, this isn’t as exciting as most other Struise offerings, but it’s tasty and quite easy to drink.
