3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Maria (7805) - Thisted, DENMARK - JUL 16, 2007
Dark golden with a small, but creamy head. The beer is served too cold, so the aroma is a bit subdued, but I do get notes of hops, flower and apricot. The flavour also has floral, fruity-hoppy note, bitterness and after a while also apricot and a hint of banana. It’s quite charming. 2374

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Rastacouere (5900) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JUN 10, 2007
Bottle, Haket, Göteborg Clear dark gold looks, absolutely thick, tight off-white head. terrific lacing and in a chalice that is. Indeed an original hop nose as intended, slightly tart and rather green, with wild herbs, mint, mild earthiness and more than perfumey nuances, cologne-like (writing this from Cologne !). Pleasant and mostly fresh. In mouth, it appears a bit simple, but fully pushing those crazy hops forward. terroir involved in there, soft, bready mixture, almost doughy basis to the gently floral, lilac-like taste. Grows a bit more acidic, kinda ascorbic at that eventually, but it does not really interfere with the pleasure. Unique and well bodied.
