 Quack-Duck (1825), Bodensee, Germany
Sep 2, 2008 English beer #100
bottle, bought at Tucker’s Maltings. Slightly hazy brown colour, impressive and long-lasting head. Very fruity nose. Full-bodied with warming alcohol present from the first sip. Malty body with some fruit: orange, orange peel, orange marmalade, a shy hint of peach and mango perhaps. Towards the finish more and more hoppy, resulting in a citrusy hoppy-bitter and dry finish. Delicious.

Dec 26, 2007 (Bottled, bottle conditioned). Red-brown, quite lively. Hoppy scent with some sweet malts. Very carbonated, bitter with a very dry end. Hops and winter berry fruit at the front of the mouth, then a sour malt aroma at the back. Sticky sweet aftertaste. Quite rich but quite good.
