Bottle 750ml. corked @ Tasting by Benzai [ ZZT V ].

Clear matt light to medium amber colour with a small to average, frothy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, wheat, moderate yeasty, tea, paper, chamomile. Flavour is moderate sweet with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20121006]

Slightly pale yellow colour, white head. Weird aroma, malt, candy, old socks. Light sour flavour, light sugar, bit off.
Meh. The bottle was opened about 15 minutes before I tasted it. Which supposedly made it a lot worse compared to the other ratings. That shouldn’t happen. I repeat: meh.
(From 75cL bottle @ ZZT V. Thanks for sharing, fonefan)

Light golden, grey colour. Thin soapy white head. Pears, lots of it, Juniper berries and a malty base. Light bodied and not as sweet or rich as expected. Light herbal ending. It’s okay. (At ZZT V)

75cl bottle @ ZZT V. Clear a bit pale yellowish color, small to average sized white head. Smell sweetness and pear. Taste sweetness and pear, lightly sugar. Low body, low carbo.

@ZZT V. Weird misty hay-ish colour with a small white head. Smells overripe pear, weird fruits, sweet, wine. Tastes like hay and water. Truly weird beer if you ask me. Thin body, low carbo.

Pours a hazy medium orangish amber color. Aroma is lightly malty, hoppy, yeasty, with a touch of fruit. Flavor is a nice mixture of malts and fruits.

Bottle@Home. Aroma of old malts with hints of perfume and citrus. Yellow colour, white head, good lace. Rather sweet, light citric, bitter, malty, citrus. Medium body.
