Bottle @ joes. Clear orange colour with a small white head. Smells yeast, nailpolish remover, glue. Tastes herbs, lots of iron and very watery. Thin body, lots of carbo.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 jmgreenuk (1284) - The Hague, NETHERLANDS - MAR 31, 2013
Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Pours a clear dark amber with a broken white head and lots of carbonation. The aroma is fresh and yeasty with some fruity notes. Served cool, the flavour is medium bitter, malty, a little metallic but with a weak and watery palate. It’s quite drinkable, but a little bland.

1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20 worldbeertaste (1121) - Lancashire, ENGLAND - FEB 24, 2013
Medium amber with a fizzy, quick disappearing, off-white, non-lacy head. Smells of overripe fruit, yeast, and a bit of club soda. Medium, thin body with medium carbonation. Like soda water. Tastes of sweet malt, chemical, some fruitiness and caramel. Clearly whatever way this gained carbonation gave it a slightly harsh edge. I shook it up to get some of the carbonation out and it was sort of close to a Amber ale afterwards but with a harsh chemical aftertaste.
