Dec 10, 2007 330ml bottle (Gallows Bird)
Very bitter aroma - slightly yeasty. Taste matches, but when we added the yeast after a few sips without, the yeastiness is too overpowering, and makes it a bit mushroomy, also quite bitter and caustic on the tongue. So IMHO, don’t add the yeast, and you’ll get a crisper classic de Ranke bitter taste.

Dec 10, 2007 Pine tree, strong Noble hops, orange peels, very tart and hoppy on the nose. Balanced on the palate, with a nice interplay between hop-bitterness, vanilla and tart yeastiness.
