Post Borefts I Invasion of Fonefan and Charlottes room tasting! Hazy amber beer. Softish palate, mildly fruity and malty. A little subtle spice. Easy drinking. Original 3.3
3rd May 2010
Cloudy dark amber beer, frothy short lived off white head. Light dry palate. Nice caramel malt fairly well balanced with bittering stingy hops. Marmalade orange, faint raspberry and a little Nelson Sauvin like blackcurrant. Finishes soft and a little dry with more fruit. Solid beer, good stuff.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Smells lightly sour. Tastes bitter, but I don’t taste enough of the Chinook-hops and it doesn’t really tastes like 60 EBU to me. Maybe a little bit thin texture, but still a very nice mouthfeel.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Bottled) Opaque amber with a small, mostly fading head. Yeasty and (exotic-)fruity, sweetish-caramely aroma, a bit like ’t IJ Columbus. Yeasty and homebrewish-harsh flavor with licorice, exotic fruit, and cookie-like maltiness, candy sweetness. 60 EBUs are well hidden in the sweet-fruity yeastiness. Almost medium body, quite low and soft carbonation. Quite a homebrewish attempt to follow the fashionable US hops wave, yet in some strange ways I like this. 5434
