3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Egon (478) - Gothenburg, - JUL 15, 2009
Bottle. Hazy golden with white head. Yeast and refreshing, a bit of a surprise. Expected something else but it is not bad at all but the competition is not strong either. Sweet finish.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 Argonian (51) - Athens, GREECE - APR 13, 2012
Bottle. Pours a golden, hazy body, with a low white head that leaves a good lacing. Grainy and sweet aroma, with faint notes of orange, I think. Nice hoppy and bitter flavour. Medium carbonation, medium body, watery texture. Average, and overpriced here.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 stjamesgate (8) - IRELAND - MAR 23, 2012 does not count
Lumpy creamy head over straw yellow body with yeast at the end, lively carbonation, and good lace.
Grassy hops and waxy berry on the nose with a hint of banana.
Banana chips and sour grain up front, a fruity middle and spicy grassy hops with some lemon zest and green bark to end.
Lean flinty end and dry linger. Crisp, light and a bit greasy.
Strange but ultimately nice cross between a Belgian blonde, weiss and lager.

Bottle. Sedimentary, hazy yellow, with scant head. Not a nice looking beer. Aroma has over-sparged grain and pedio. Is thin and fizzy, granular and dry. Oversparged, and amateur, but not undrinkable.
