Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home cooking nduja meatballs in a rich tomato sauce in the wood oven, after a day of gardening, it's been a very warm day it was up to 25c earlier but now 16c and dropping. Pours dark chestnut brown with a ruby hue, good clarity. Malty on the nose with some chocolate. In the mouth, quite tangy, fruity, soft mouthfeel. Hoppiness coming through, light/middle bitterness, good. Score: 7.1
