Bottle (from the november 2005 RB-tasting at Dixens place - notes have been damaged by flooding of my basement, but this was such an insane tasting for me as I was new to such massive tastings, so I gave up on the detailed notes quite early). Hops, elderflower, yeast and whet. All I could read.

Bottle. Very cloudy, very pale yellow colour. Thin malt flavour with some bitterness.

Bottle. Unclear pale colour. Aroma of coriander. Light pleasant flavour of wheat and some sourness, but absolute nothing speciel, just okey.

Light sourish nose with some weak elderflowers. Hazy pale yellow body with a small white head. Sourish and wheaty flavor, light elderflower notes.

Bottle at RBESG grand tasting, August 2005. Pale straw colour. The estery, yeasty, wheat character is there and the elderberries come through loud and clear too. Some sharp edges on the palate. Curiously successful.

Spicy banana, lemon-citrus, cookie dough and wheat in the aroma. Opaque yellow straw coloured body with decent, fine bubbled, white head. Banana esters are quite strong along with grassy, herbal hop flavours and moderate finishing bitterness. Medium-light body with crisp carbonation. Bottle sampled at RBESG 2005.

Hazy yellow, with a wonderfulhuge and lasting white head. Fruity aroma frompeach, pear, pine apple and elder. Elder flavor, pear, peach, yeast and some wheat.

Sampled at RBESG 2005.
Cloudy light yellow body, small snow white head. Grainy and citrusy aroma, reminds me of an unfermented brewing mash. Thin grainy and citrusy in the flavor with a vague hoppy bitterness. Uninteresting and a dissapointment from this brewer!
