Bottle. Cloudy dark amber with a decent white head. Aroma of vanilla, peach, pine and wheat. Taste of grains, vanilla, pine, wheat, peaches and hints of citrus fruits. Moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. Adding the frozen raspberries felt gimmicky for sure and added a lovely note of raspberry. But then again I‘m quite fond of gimmicks and redundancies.

0,33 l bottle. BB 4.11.26. Cloudy orange golden to copper in the glass, more than oen finger white foamy head. Defintive peach on the nose, pine and resin, some malt. Taste has intensive sweet peach with resin, malt in the background. Oily texture. Present pleasant bitterness. Great stuff so far.
Added the enclosed raspberry powder later. Got an intensive raspberry shot, flat bitterness. Some taste elements like porridge. Maybe a party gag, but did´nt fit imho.
