Botella de 33 Cl. Cerveza de alta fermentacion que no tiene nada especial.

33cl Bottle (5.5%ABV) brought back from Menorca by one of my wifes friends: thanks. cad 10/12 whatever that means? Lot 136. Poured into a ’Leffe’ badged stemmed glass goblet at home on 08 Oct 2012. Orange and clear until the sediment rushed out and gave the body a dull murky look. The white head fell away after initially being impressive, deep and full. The smell was peaches, passion fruit and apricots (stewed). The taste was semi-sour as if it was on the turn: the fruits from the aroma now became grapefruit and Ugli fruit like in flavour. Refreshing but strange tasting: doughy/leathery and fruity, the fruit however is begining to rot. Nicely carbonated but those weird fruit flavour come back to haunt your taste buds. Maybe my bottle had a yeast infection because I don’t believe it should have looked or tasted like it did. Either that or it was passed it’s drink-by-date. My scores are how I took it on the day: and I almost enjoyed its mixed up flavours, nose and tastes.

cloudy yellow, small white head. Sligtly flowey, s,ight,y surish. Flavor is herbal, citrussy, hoppy, sort of wheaty. Bott,e at lorien, pa,ma

Bottled, thanks TEJA! Cloudy pale golden, small head. Tart milky nose. Dryish with light-medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Notes of apples. Low bitterness. Fairly drinkable hot weather beer.
