33cl bottle. from Beermerchants - many thanks, poured into goblet glass
Rapidly diminishing lacing, dark carmel mess of appearance, very red, aroma is intereresting, burnt bitterness, toast, grass, wood resin, caramel, toffee, even apples. Tast is caramel, apples, toffee, hey, toast, bit too malty and carmael based for me, some rough element to the palate. Ok but not amazing.

33cl bottle.Amber-brown ale with beautiful head. Lemon and yoghurt nose. The taste seems to be completely yeast-dominated, with more of the lemon and yoghurt. The palate has a fresh start, a really creamy texture and a long drying finish. Overall, I’m not sure about this one - more interesting than good1!

Chevy Chase Liquors, DC 11.2oz ($2.69): The best thing about this might be the pour. Really nice red body with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is very mildly fruity and has that cheap metallic (?) smell ( I know metallic is a taste, but...) Body is a weak point: it is too watery. Feels like they took a Belgian Ale and then made the light version of it. Slight sweetness and slight bitterness, but really not much there. I could easily drink ten of these. So even though it sounds like I am talking smack, this is a drinkable ale and not offensive either.

I wanted to like this beer more but couldn’t. The aroma is mild, some caramel and a grassy background. The flavour is sweet and crisp, with crystal malt, some hop balance, fruitiness, and more grass notes. Looks beaitiful in its glass at least.
