50 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Lidl Culemborg. Clear golden with a thin white head. Faint grainy aroma. Sweet taste with a bit astringent note. Not fruity at all, although the label proclaims otherwise. Smooth mouthfeel but all in all sub par.

500ml bottle (4.2% ABV); BB 30th Jun 2018. Poured into a Black Sheep Brewery badged straight sleeve (UK Pint), at home on 16th Feb 2018. Got to admit I only bought this because I noticed the cask version had it's own entry on RateBeer and this was an easy and cheap extra 'tick' for me. Light golden body, slight haze, the head a thin white affair, which soon turned into a wisp and collar. The nose is like a mixed fruit bowl sprinkled with caster sugar, taste not so sweet but still fruity in nature. Light bitterness below the malty base, overall better than I expected for a fairly cheap supermarket beer.

Bottle, 0.5l. Clear copper pour, one finger soapy white head, quickly diminishing. Lasting thin layer, decent lacing. Pleasantly hoppy nose, earthy, some yeasty notes in the background. Thin to medium body with soft carbonation. Regular texture, a bit light on the tongue. Taste is moderately bitter, a bit sticky, dry mouthfeel. Grainy aroma. Good malt character. Earthy hops, slightly peppery. Herbal aftertaste, dry finish. Overall, not bad. Good amount of aroma for the low ABV. A bit thin overall, yes, but still a good thirst quencher.

Donkergeel bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is licht bitterzoet met iets van gras en geroosterd brood. Niet slecht maar ook echt bijzonder.
