330 ml bottle, shared by gunnar. ABV is 4.5%. Amber to orange colour, low white head. Very moderate aroma, some slight sourish notes. Acidic flavour, vinegary and undrinkable. Must have gone bad.

Shared bottle courtesy of gunnar. Hazy golden with a white film. Puke and vinegar on the nose. Heavily acidic and astringent in the mouth, much like stomach acid. Gone bad.

Bottled gift from my daughter Camilla. Pours cloudy amber with no head at all. Aroma of caramel and some sourness which I am shure was not intended by the brewer. Taste is another evidence that this beer is off, more off an unintended lambic, what a pity.

Another Cooks beer, enjoyed while on vacation on the Cook Islands... Color was mahogany, malty aroma... Light bodied, crisp, but flavor was a little off... Probably classify it as a dark lager, interesting...
