Fuity aroma, orange peel.Thick white cloudy head. Straw yellow, plenty of bubbles rising. Spicy, floral flavor. I got clove, and an earthy taste. Soft bitterness. Too much carbonation. Lightly sour finish.

Bottle 33cl. Pours a very pale almost clear brew with a white stable head. Dry citric taste with beautiful hop nose. Top fermenting yeast taste in the finish. Nice overall impression. ABV very well hided. ABV produced without addition of sugar, compliment!

Mély arany színű ital.Vigyázat a bontásnál mert igen intenzíven "élő" ital,és minden áron szabadulni akar üveg börtönéből!Hatalmas habot tud produkálni,ami aztán szépen eltűnik hálós nyomokat hagyva.Elég tartózkodó kissé fűszeres illata van.Íze keserű,citrusosan savas,fűszeres,kitölti a szájat.Utóíze is száraz és étvágygerjesztően keserű.

11.2 oz bottle. Cloudy orange brwn with a puffy white head. Nose is yeast, dough and a touch of lemon. Bright, bubbly and crisp. Taste is lemon and banana with a lime zest finish. A nice Blond with a hint of honey.
