Bottle brown, 500 ml, 12.1P
Appearance: Pours perfectly clear sedimentless body texture, body is regulary strawbeery red, weakly saturated and well carbonated, carbonation creates a foamy head, slightly red or pink in colour, there is a gentle lacing, head is initially medium in size but decreasing to small, not diminishing. Presents itself better yhan green version. I think red is more natural colour for a beer than green but still nothing extraordinary.
Aroma: Initially quite nice aroma of yeasts and kind of spicyness from vivid carbonation and kind of hoppy spicyness. Aroma reminds a regular Premium Lager but it has slightly sweet accent being candy like. There is a hint of red fruits or juice from red fruits with notes of white sugary sweetness, still not bad. Gentle notes of malt mixed with juice at the background contrasting with slightly hoppy spicyness.
Flavour: Front is soft and not overely sweet as the green version but still there is a prominant dull flavour of the artificial hue and dullness becoming moer and more prominant. Finish duration is moderate in lenght.
Palate: Body is light, texture is wattery - sweet on the verge of syrupy, carbonation on palate is soft to medium, finish feel is sticky sweet, flat, dull.
