(33cl bottle) Pours a lightly hazy golden body with a small white head. Aroma of mustiness, citrus, peaches, and yeast. Flavor of coriander, yeast, apricot, and light citrus.

Bottled at arendsnest, Amsterdam. Hazy body, small white head. Aroma like a cheap Finnish cider, but the taste is quite fruity and full. Finish with apricot.

7th October 2008. Cloudy amber beer. Crisp start with a nice fruity profile. Oranges and a little peach and mango. Then a light a malt with a very light brandyish undertone. A nice crisp sparkle to this one as well.

My bottle [330ml] shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- c/o madmitch76. Pours a hazy golden-orange with a tiny creamy off-white head. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, yeast, fruit and a hint of hops. Flavour, also sweet, of caramel malt, yeast, light alcohol and citrus fruit, almost orange juice-like. Average to medium bodied. Expected better but still pretty good.

Bottle ( 330ml ). Shared by blankboy with me and garthicus. Hazy amber with an average creamy white head. Sweet aroma, a bit lemony, mild dry yeast and oily grain - oddly bitter for a BSA. Taste is spicy, yeasty - sweet orange candy - some alcohol (not 10%!) - I liked it! Decent grassy bitterness overriding it. Slick and slightly boozy mouthfeel, nice carbonation - pretty decent, I liked the citrus.

With thanks to Blankboy. Appearance: Golden yellow - like a nice wheat beer, small white head. Aroma: Spicy yeast, malt, fruit and vinyl. Flavour: Caramel, malt, perfume, lemon, yeast and alcohol. Not bad.

Bottle 33cl.
