yngwie (9205) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - AUG 19, 2011
Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. It’s an unclear, light amber beer with a very small off-white head. Fruity and sourish aroma with a touch of green pine cones. Quite bitter tasting, with some toffee and fruityness. Slightly sour too, finishing bitter and sour. Medium body. Not much pleasant going on here. 110829
