Bottled. The aroma has malts, herbal tones, citrus. Hazy, yellow-orange coloured beer with a thin, off-white head. The taste is light bitter with some sweet malts, citrus, some aprikots. Nice pilsener with a little more body than the average pilsener.

33cl Bottle, bought at NHBF. Hazy golden orange colour, white head. Aroma of pale malts, yeast, hay, light spicy, floral and slightly fruity. Flavour is medium sweet, malty, light spicy, floral and fruity, light hoppy finish with a nice light chili burn. Medium bodied, soft carbonation.

Yellow, golden beaches body and firm, creamy pearl white head. Very nice, mellow hop flavour with peach sweetness and ready malts as backbone. Good amount of old world hops here. Very smooth and easily drinkable, light sweet. It does reveal more alcohol than I expected. Super ow carbonation, which I generally like much this is too little. Okay. (At Pint N-H Bierfestval.)

Bottle @ home. Aroma is wheaty malt, some vegetable fruit. Flavour is medium sweet, wheat, fruit. Somehow it tastes very much like turkish apple tobacco. Weird but not bad.

Bottle, 5%. Mildly fruity aroma, hint of baking yeast. Slightly hazy yellow colour. Good stable white head. The flavour has a mild fruitiness, but is nicely clean. Medium bitterness, crisp. Hint of baking yeast in the finish. Good.

Bottle from ABC Beers The Hague. Didn’t knew what to expect.. a pilsner with peppers? When poured out it looks clear, with only very little head. When poured out completely it becomes hazy, because of the refermenting on the bottle. Aroma has lots of herbs, spices and floral hops. Flavour starts off pilsener-like, and finishes really interesting with spiceyness, not too much, bitterness. Really interesting.

Bottle in a hotel room in Amsterdam. Hazy yellow coloured with a small white head. Fruity aroma of spices and citrus peel. Fruity flavour of spices and citrus peel with notes of hops. Hoppy finish.

33 cl bottle. Pours cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is yeasty, dry spiced and light herbal. Mild fruity, bitter and light citric. Bitter, toasted and malty. Ends dry and light spiced.
