Bottle, Best Before 07-2013
I opened the bottle directly from the fridge, so the temp was around 4°C. I’d guessed it was a good lager. Subdued aromas of bread, yeast, grass and hops. Clean and fresh. Taste is likewise, with a hint of green unripe fruits. But overall just clean and fresh, with a bitter bready aftertaste. Before I noticed, the bottle was empty.

Bottle 0,33L. Appearance doesn’t promise much - clear yellow/orange colour with almost no head and carbonation, just a crown. Aroma is better: hay, grass, herbs, pine - like a bitter. Taste is pleasantly bitter and so is the aftertaste, that doesn’t lasts long. Refreshing beer with medium body and watery texture.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 ElDesmadre (934) - Mikołów, POLAND - FEB 7, 2013
Bottle, kindly traded with Cunningham. Lovely hoppy aroma, floral, white grapes, subtle citrus. Some strawberries, pale malt and toffee underneath. Dry body, hoppy flavour that still leaves some room for the malt and fruity esters. Light sweetish, some grassy notes come up during drinking, besides white grapes, citrus, malt and toffee. The bitterness is rather strong, of the grassy-citrusy-earthy type. A light and fast drinker, yet still not watery. Brilliant!

330 ml bottle. Aroma of earty and grassy hops and pale malt. Taste is buttery and malty, bitterness is low. Thin body.
