Bottle at home. Clear orange pour, foamy white head. Aroma is very skunked with loads of cats piss and some grainy malts and a hint of crispy hops. Flavor is watery, quite bitter and some malty sweetness. Crispy and skunked.

AtronSeige (64) - Johannesburg, SOUTH AFRICA - MAY 15, 2013
Pours light golden with slight copper tones, very clear. Frothy head. Quite a bit of bubbles in the glass. Strong hops aroma with caramel notes. Medium bitterness, ending quite dry, but still sweet and enjoyable. Some spice flavors. Medium light bodied with good carbonation. Soft carbonation on the tongue. A hoppy, enjoyable beer that I would like to drink lots of! 500ml bottle, poured.

Light golden colour, a bit fruity. A drop to be enjoyed with food, like cheeses or over lunch. Not my favourite but OK.
