3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at Meibockfestival, and later 75 cl bottle. At the festival I had this right after Eem’s Xtr’eem Spring Warrior, I didn’t taste much, but I thought my tastebuds were corrupted. From the bottle at home there’s a bit more to it: flowery hops in the aroma, as well as strawberry and caramel malt. Taste is sweetish, fruity and bitterish, but only ever so slightly. Hardly any aftertaste. Not a bad brew, but doesn’t live up to its name, a bit disappointing.
