UPDATED: FEB 9, 2013 Tap@Mikkeller. Clear light golden. Faint aromas. Neutral taste more like a pils. Sweet though. A bite boring from the gypsy. Rerated 9/2-13. Bottle@ home. Still boring. Saphir not very aromatic.

Pale Ale suave, ligera y fresca tanto en el sabor, como en los aromas (ligeramente lupulados) y la densidad. Nada especial.

RichardGretton (4028) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - APR 24, 2013
Bottle. Vibrant golden beer with a light head and an active body. The aroma is light fruity with some yeastiness, and the flavour has good bitterness and general dulled fruitiness. Overall an average beer with plenty of bitterness. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

badmansam (57) - Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 24, 2013
Bottle from Kris Wines. No BB. 2014/4/23 - Quite disappointing. Smell is rather off putting. No body. Good head retention. Just about drinkable. Memorably forgettable!

Countbeer (2920) - Best of Eindhoven ohne Brauhaus, NETHERLANDS - APR 14, 2013
Draught: Medium sized vast white head which disappears slowly on top of a cloudy yellow colored beer. Aroma is very malty with some hints of fruit and wood but mostly malts. Flavours of wood, yeast, malts, light hops and herbs but again mostly malts. Aftertaste is also malty with a light herbal edge. Low carbo, soft mouthfeel, low to medium body and a light creamy texture. Very dull and malty beer...
