33 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange to brown with a lacing off-white head. Mild orange fruit and malt aroma. Flavour is mild citric with an almost gone malt flavour. Citric and mild infection flavour into the finish. Sadly another bottled version that was off :(

(Bottle 34 cl) Clear, orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Lightly nutty and vaguely burned aroma. Light in body and a little low in carbonation. Very pleasant nutty accents, soft mouthfeel and a smooth finish almost without any bitterness. 040508

Ruby, rich color with minimal head. Aroma is very bright berry and plum fruits. Flavor starts with almost sour cherry but finishes with a spicy, hopped dryness that is quite addictive. A refreshing session ale.

Colour a dull ruby, like an unfined wine. Complex fruity aroma. Carbonation low and the head retiring after being "crashed into the glass" as mandated by the label. A pleasing and balanced fullness. By some measure the best South African beer I have tasted.

Bottle: Pours a murky amber topped by a tan ring for head. Has a surprisingly nice aroma, almost Barley Wine-like. Fruity, berry-ish notes with some grape character, along with toasted malts. Has medium, bubbly carbonation, with less flavor than anticipated from the aroma. Has an initial mild tartness with some berry suggestions, which leads to a crystal malt middle. The finish is slightly tart as well, without enough bitterness. A decent effort.
