A light orange beer with a huge dense white head. The aroma is very hoppy with notes of flowers and oil - like a Czech pils. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, malt, and lots of bitter hops, which gives it a niece bitter finish. A nice pils.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pale golden with a decent, white head. Very soft, sweet malty body with a wee perfumy touch and a pleasant freshness. 020301
