I dont know if you guys had a bad bottle but mine was not contaminated, probably due to chlorine.. Light gold in colour. A got a honey nose with a whiff of chlorine. Rather bland taste, a ain with that chlorinated taste. Seems that the brewer may not be doing a good rinsing job. But no cucumber or other vegetables in here.

Neurotic cucumber water covered by a huge ash deposit...A chaotic chalky finish overrides the obvious oxidation...Usually I would not rate this, but as they sell it in this condition in their own store...

Cucumber, dust, DMS (cabbage) and cherry jam in the aroma. Clear yellow-gold with white fully diminishing head. Stale, earthy, moldy flavour. Light, still body. Sampled with MartinT and Rastacouere. Bottle.

Totally clear straw yellow with a white film as a head. Aroma is weird to say the least. Your mother’s cucumber’s dip in which she unloaded the dust from the vacuum cleaner’s filter. Dry yet boiled vegetables, already astringent from smelling. Palate is watery, unpleasant, not as despicable as the nose, but fully flawed, anywhere and everywhere possible and thinkable. Surprising notes of pumpkin, bland eggs, chalky finish, fully oxidized and I’m fairly sure the bottle was rather fresh. Thin body and low carbonation just can’t help the off-flavors. A never-ending, unfinishable nightmare where all your worse memories are thrown back at you.
