Bottle: Deep golden, a bit unclear with an orangey sheen? smaller off-white head? moderate grainy-caramelly nose with a delicate hoppy background and a tinge of alcohol? moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied? slightly lingering sweet caramelly finish, alcohol detectable, with a balancing bitterness in the very end. Not too demanding, but quite well quaffable....
