TBone (9405) - Pori, FINLAND - AUG 22, 2009
Bottled (BB 04/2010). Courtesy of bierkoning, ty Edo! Golden yellow color, small white head. Sweet honeyish, alcoholic and grainy aroma with some apple. Flavor is similar, very fruity and sweet, low bitterness but some alcohol. Actually more or less pleasant drink, when you share a bottle. Not something to drink in quantities.

[RBESG, Sheffield]
Grand Tasting @ The Harlequin, Sheffield.
Pours clear golden with a big, creamy, white head. Aroma is sweet, some brewing cereal, yeast and sweet malts. Soft carbonation, fine mouthfeel. Sweet and wheaty flavour. Some bready malts and yeast. Just too sweet.

bierkoning (8099) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - JUN 10, 2009
Bottle. Pale blonde. Peach and pear in the aroma. Malty sweetish, slightly alcoholic flavor with tangerine. Some hops in the far background. Quite a drinkable beer, but not abundant with aromas and flavors.

jbrus (4990) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - NOV 5, 2009
Bottle@Home. To me it tasted like a pretty boring strong lager. Nothing else there but maybe a hint of caramel and some yellow fruits.
