Bottle at Craigs. A blonde ale with a lacy white head. Musty aroma with wheat, caramel and candy sugar. Flavour is quite musty and tart with fresh lemon, lemon sherbert, wheat and barley. Foamy mouth-feel with a nice dry finish. Not bad, thanks Craig : )

Bottle. Very frothy white head; darker hazy marigold color. Lightly funky and sweet in the aroma. Floral flavors and a bit sweet and sticky. Wild nature doesn’t really come through in the taste, but some residual peach and pear sweetness in the finish. Some spice and citrus as well. Not bad, but would have been nicer to get the sour in the flavor.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 DruncanVeasey (4794) - NUNEATON, Conference North, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - OCT 4, 2010
750ml bottle bought at Enoteca Bonatti, Firenze last July- bottled November 2008. Gusher. The beer that made it to the glass poured fully hazed; orange-gold with a fine, subsiding white head. Beckoning aroma packed with Belgian-hinting goodies; honeycomb, wine gums, lean piney hop dappled with lime and cream. Slick and slippery, alcohol obscenely well concealed; gentle resiny pine, lemon barley and tinned peach over a lightly toasted, honeyed cereal base. Hints of grassiness and apple turnover. Fine and mellow, if a trifle limp considering the ABV, champagne yeast and incendiary carbonation on prising the cap. Picks up some gluey special strength lager notes as it warms- disappointing, considering it remains about the most expensive beer I’ve ever purchased. Still, a pleasantly honeyed, discreetly fruity, Belgian-accented drop all the same.

Cloudy orange with a small white head. Herbal and fruity yeast aroma. Sweet, complex flavour of fruit and spices, with a yeasty note.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 marcot (771) - Campomorone, ITALY - AUG 19, 2010
Bottiglia da 75; aveva sicuramente dei problemi vista la sburata di schiuma che ha inondato il monopoli di Corkscrew. Al naso sembra quasi regolare ma alla bocca risalta principalmente un acido da bretta che mi ricorda una maturazione in barrique mai avvenuta. Vabeh, voto sulla fiducia, al naso sembrava buona, la riberrò. Un ringraziamento in stile danese: thanks to Corkscrew for sharing.
