Bottle In Copenhagen, split with friends. The pour’s deep gold with a small head. The nose is brett, salty herbal funk. Mild summery fruits. The taste is more of the same. Tart pillowy brett, countryside, a bit of mineral. Moderate fruity sweetness. Soft, light body. Fine carbonation. Overall, quite drinkable stuff. Solid.

Trade with AdamJackson. Thanks. Pre Christian Firtal Pale Ale Festival, 2013. Pours slight unclear golden with a large frothy head. Nose is hops, grass, fruit, yeast and funk. Funky dry and fruity flavor with a hoppy and mild sourish touch.

Cloudy orange with a lasting white head. The rich and complex aroma has tropical fruit, peach, melon and mango, some spices, cinnamon, vanilla, cardemum and pepper, grass and herbal notes. Sweetish fruity flavour with a tart edge. Both refreshing and complex, constantly interesting

2013-04-27. Crisp bright orange body, modest white head and lace.3+ Aroma is lightly musty, lemon peel, flavour is quite refreshing, modest sourness throughout, interesting little sour bite to it, lemon notes, whispers of wheat and dandelion? Refreshingly tart and sour. Average plus palate with moderate carbonation suits it. Nice, very refreshing. Bottle at Prohibition Pig, Waterbury.

Clara: When you say, "mobile phone", why do you point at that blue box?
The Doctor: Because it’s a surprisingly accurate description!
