| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 4, 2007 330ml bottle at Gollem, Amsterdam, 10/02/07. Pours a cloudy mid-amber with a large, short-lived head. The aroma is very clean - very nice mix of citrus, floral and straw scents. The flavour delivers on the promise with a good hoppy bitterness that carries through to the aftertaste. Light and drinkable, but I feel that the alcohol is a bit too apparent and in my opinion, stops this being truly great.
