White, fizzy head, which is good lacing and mostly diminishing. Yellow cloudy body. Hoppy and yeasty aroma. Lightly sweet, moderately bitter initial flavour, heavily bitter finish, which had a long duration. Lively mouthfeel.

Orangey colour, paler than 'amber' would signify. Thick white head, slowly collapsing. Nose of citrus, iron. taste is orange rind, something meaty. Ironoxide taste, like a galvanic stream in the mouth as well as something lactic. Mouthfeel is very light, quite carbonised without being fizzy. At the same time, there's something greasy in it. Weird. Aftertaste only a hint of aroma of 'potiron', kind of pumpkin. For a first of a new brewery, meant to exist on its own, more than laudable.
