On tap @Buskers Pub (Rome). Pours acid yellow with a medium white head. Aroma of yeasts, lots of fruits, peach, citrus, floral notes and spices. Flavour has a light malty profile with a good bitter end. Medium body, medium carbonation. Fantastic!

Clear, amber colored, medium white creamy head, nice lacing. Aroma is spicy and peppery, some fruits and grapefruit, grass and hay, quite hoppy. Taste is medium sweet caramel, spicy peppery, bit of grass and citrus, medium+ hops aroma and medium bitterness, bit bready finish, dry. Medium- bodied, average- carbonation, bit resiny. Nice stuff! (on tap, Gainsbar, Kortrijk, BE)

On tap at Akkurat. Hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma of grass, hops and some hints of yeast. Similar taste although more yeast. On the dry side with a bitter finish.

Keg at Akkurat, Stockholm. Hazy golden, mid sized head. Intense grassy nose. Dry with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Marzipan and intense grassy hops. Intense combination of fresh grassy hops and phenolic yeast. Some vanilla sooths and otherwise wildly bitter finish. Brutally flavourful, yet the elegant. De Ranke style!
