average frothy white head. golden thick translucid body. fair lacing. fully diminishing. aroma: heavy hopy, pear, apple. if: moderate sweet light bitter. ff: light bitter sweet; average duration. palate: light medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation metallic finish. tastes like honey, thist-quenching. 12s

Bottled. A hazy orange beer with a small head. Aroma is very citric (orange) and malty, notes of cinnamon. Taste is also malty with citric notes. Very drinkable. Dry end

Pours a clear light amber color. Medium white head that shows medium retention and leaves a small lacing. Aroma is malty with slight herbal hops. Nice notes of honey and fruity esters of apricots, pears and apples. Fresh and crisp with the addition of some nougat smell in the back. Flavor is bittersweet, combining fruity notes with some nutty hints. Apples, peaches, vanilla, grapes and honey roasted nuts are present. Maybe the taste is a little diluted in a watery texture. Body is medium, highly carbonated as all the beers of the brewer. Maybe it has to do with the bottle conditioning. Very refreshing and quaffable. Ending has an alcoholic kick. It leaves a pleasant fruity aftertaste. Pretty good.

Bottle: Bottle: Interesting to find a micro that successfully produces several styles in a country dominated by their wine culture and where beer is defined by the awful mass commercial Quilmes. A good choice to get a decent and refreshing beer from Argentina.

UPDATED: MAR 29, 2007 Clear orange color, medium white head that disappears quickly. Aroma is mostly of grains, honey, banana, peach, walnut. Flavor is dry, toasted, bread, nutty.

Bottle at Cossab December 06. Clear golden color, creamy medium sized white head with slight lacing, some amber hues. Aroma is malt and some nuts. Taste is malty, fruity, slightly sweet with some hops balancing at the end. Mouthfeel is medium, filling and fresh.

Bottled at Cossab, Buenos Aires. Hazy deep golden, small head. Some hay-like hops and a touch of orange. Light-medium bodied with crisp, yet rounded mouthfeel. A very drinkable well balanced ale.
