Jul 4, 2008 (Bottled) Clear, deep amber with a medium, firm and lightly lacy head. Woody-nutty-hoppy, not very strong aroma with biscuity malt. Dryish, woody-hoppy flavor with a crisp bitter lemon finish. Light to medium-bodied, somewhat fizzy-carbonated palate with the water feeling pretty hard. As crisply hoppy as the Early Bird, but maybe not quite as refreshing.

Jul 2, 2008 Golden brown coloured beer. Fast vanishing white head. Some grass in the nose. Some sourness and lemon in the taste. In the end bite of hops. A nice summer refreshner. 0.5L bottle.

Feb 13, 2008 Updated: Feb 16, 2008Bottled. Clear pale amber with a low white head. Mellow hop aroma of oranges, grass and metal with lemony accents. Rather fruity flavour of lemon and straw with biscuity and metallic undertones, Medium to light bodied. Nuts, mild lemon, metal and nuts in the finish. Quite decent but certainly not exiting.
