Bottle. An off-white two-finger head sits on top of a sparkling amber body. Very weak on the nose, some milky notes, and dried fruits and caramel sweetness. Seems a bit chalky and berry-ish too. Quite thin in the mouth, well carbonated, low on flavors. Berries, some caramel, grains and a cellar touch. Short finish, quite dry with a yeasty touch. Definately not my kind of beer, not very well crafted either. 100618

30cl Bottle from a gift pack. Clear amber colour, dense white head. Aroma of infected beer, sour, bit of caramel. Flavour is oxidized, malty, sour, hint of caramel, cinnamon, light sour finish. Light to medium bodied. Not that bad, but I wonder how this beer would taste if it wasn’t infected, because I think that is what saved the beer. Still got one bottle left though...
