Ungstrup (23913) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - APR 10, 2005
[Cask at GBBF 2004] A yellow beer with no head, and a really weird aroma, that I’d describe as that of fish. The flavor is sweet hoppy combined with notes of caramel.

Bottle. Nice frothy head with medium duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are sour brett, stable, malt, fruits, flowers and hops. Not sure brett is intentional but I like it.
