3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy amber golden with a small, white head. Lightly tart, citrusy nose with a whiff of yeast. Fairly full body with sweet, malty accents. A honeyish character and some indefinable spices. Exciting all right at the mo, but will probably develop a lot with aging. 260806

Bottle. Sorry for being a bit of a bastartd here, but i didn’t like this one anywhere near what i thought i would. This is overloaded with alcohol. Lots of stewed plummy fruit, overly acidic orange fruit characters, and way too much alcohol in the finish. Perhaps it need some age of course, as this was just too much.
