2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle, donated by Bierkoning - Thanks a lot! Hazy brownish golden colour, mid-sized head. Robust malty base with a grainy caharcter, reminding me of German Vollkornbread (wholemeal bread) with shy hints of forest berries and a nice hoppy finish that adds a touch of fruity hops.

Blonde with yeast floating. Light hoppy aroma with the slightest hint of pear. Firm hopbitter flavor with vanilla and a touch of yeast. Hint of citrus. Surprisingly good!

2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
