caesar (3722) - Bunnik/Utrecht, NETHERLANDS - SEP 16, 2011
Bottled @ home. Clear golden color, big off-white head. Aroma of tropical fruit, pineapple, slight malty, biscuit, almost sweet, slight straw/hay. Quite bitter taste, biscuity, cookie, bitterness which I would describe as pineapple-like, could be Galena?. Quite sweet malty taste, a bit too much Crystal like malts perhaps for my liking. Dryish. Although the couple of flaws I described for my personal taste, it’s still a very decent brew. The biscuity notes I like a lot, and the bitterness is not astringent or anything. Also for this reasonable low ABV it is very tasteful and full bodied.
