3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, 75cl. It’s an almost clear one, golden in color and topped by a small, dense, off-white head. Quite hoppy aroma with pine cones and citrus peel. Alcohol, malty sweetness and some sugary hints in the aroma. Peaches too. It’s rather warming on the palate, full-bodied and quite pleasantly carbonated. Resiny, piney and peachy, with malty sweetness and alcohol in the flavor. A bit too syrupy sweet, too alcoholic, else it’s a pleasant beer. 130216

Bottled. Pours hazy amber with a medium sized off-white head, leaving a good lacing. Aroma of citrus, caramel, peach and a hint of pine. Sweet flavor that ends up solid bitter with some booze notes too. Medium to full bodied, syrupy texture and soft to average CO2. A nice hoppy barley. ★★★★
