3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle, 75cl. It pours a hazy orange-golden body and a dense, finger-thick white head. The aroma is a tad weak, with pale malts and some fruityness. Some woody notes in the far back. Fruity flavor with some pale malts and a touch of grass and pine cones, and a pleasant touch of dessert wine. Full body, maybe a bit heavy on the carbonation. Quite dry. Overall, a nice beer. Indeed. There’s something about it that I can’t describe, but it’s good. 130216
