Bottle, 7%. Sweet and spicy aroma, some raisin. Cloudy orange colour, big stable white head. High carbonation. The flavour is quite spicy and nice, unfortunately a bit dry. A little more sweetness would have made much more interesting to me.

33cl bottle from Dranken Geers. Hazy gold, lasting thinnish off white head. Ok strongish blond ale. It’s fine. Again a bit vegetal. Drinkable to an extent. Just a bit on the bland side, but does most things right. It’s a bit lacking in character but perfectly drinable.
