questa splendido aroma di luppolo fresco, notevole complessità che si rispecchia in un sapore delicato e bilanciato, una delle migliori proposte Almond 22 assaggiate, e di questa ho ben più vividi ricordi che della Grand cru.

A Mes rate. Bottle at GBBF thanks to Alex.
Mid gold with very little head. Malty and sweet inititally but there are some decent floral hoppy notes. A pronounced bitter finish. Straight forward but decent. Could be very good but there is a distinct mushroomy fungal note that does it no favours.
