Bottle. Golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is weird, mothballs. Flavour is unpleasent, mothballs, malt, sweet, hop. Not my kind of beer.

UPDATED: AUG 16, 2008 Bottle, courtesy of beer_2000. Pours a nice, golden body with a small, beige to off-white head. Some micro-floaties. There’s a faint note of mothballs in the aroma, but that’s in the background. It is mostly malty, with beefstock and sweetness, as well as camphor and pine from the hops. Flavorwise it’s piney and citrusy from the hops, but also malty, and the mothballs plays a minor part here too. The body is too thin, and there’s a long, piney finish without being very bitter. A strange, nice beer. (071123)
