Short-lived attempt at white head over beer, looking for all the world as cider. End of bottle solid yeast. Sourish nose, cidery (yes!), even flowervinegar, faintly fruity. Sweet-sour, again like medium dry cider, applevinegar with sugar, and a typical flowery-fruity flavour, no doubt the elderflowersyrup. Slick, but a bit empty MF. Very un-beery. As said already, like demi-sec cider from the supermarket. I would have been all the more impressed if this result would have been reached with half the alcoholcontent... Neeryssche Dobbel-wit, anybody?

Very special beer. Sweet, hints of flowers and elderberries. It doesn’t taste like beer, more like a sweet cider. Although a nice experiment.

Bottle..... It pours hazy yellow with a large white head quick despairing head.... The aroma is sour, sweet and fruity.... The flavor is sweet, slightly sour, fruity and flowers.... very refreshing, it is nice balanced.....
