A hazy amber beer with beutiful light brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of corriiander, bannana, and mango. The flavor is very acidic which prickles the tongue combined with notes of lemongrass and hints of bannana. A very interesting beer.

Bottled. Clear dark amber. Buttery malt aroma. Sweet with soft, rich, delicate malt character but also a wealth of carbonization. Grassy and lightly roasty. Overcarbonated, but what a fantastic malt flavour!

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a cloudy, dark amber with a creamy, beige head. Somewhat impure malty nose. Surprisingly full and sweet body with notes of burned caramel. Lightly metallic edge. Considering the only 4.8% ABV this is quite rich and tasty. 060706

33 cL bottle. Pours slight hazy golden orange with a dense off-white head, lasts for a few minutes before it completely collapses. Overripe fruit, light marzipan and a mild yeast note in the aroma. Sweet caramel malt at first before a dried fruity yeast flavour rolls over the tongue. Nice fruity and yeasty finish, holds a mild wooden note too.
