Decent clear ruby-amber body with an okay level of white head on top. Faint aroma of malts, but only faint. Decent drinkable malt taste, slightly dry and bready finish. Drinkable but unremarkable.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A light brown copper ale with a thin moka head. A very nutty malt aroma with touches of milk chocolate. In mouth, a sweet caramel malt with torrefied nuts notes, actually not bad, veering on nut brown ale. Medium bodied. 12 on. can from Piscator. Merci Kris!
