Deep copper coloured body with a thinnish, relatively fast-dying just off-white and almost tan head. Aroma of honey (no surprise), grain, oatmeal, light earth, barley, hay, earth and a dose of yeast and a touch of peat and some unfinished sugars. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong honey and rich malt bite at first with a touch of hay, grain, oatmeal, earth and funky cardboard malt showing through with only a dash of sweetness and grain with the honey and stale malt noticeable and a funky cardboard and peaty malt that comes through, especially at the finish. Aftertaste shows the sweetness and rich punch of the alcohol and peated malt with the slightly off-putting cardboardie malt note, especially at the end. Overall, a funky and rather deep rich malty beer with a lot of sweetness from all the honey, but pungent from the alcohol and peated malt notes with a light medicinal flavour towards the end. Not really worth trying, unless you are like me, and wanted to sample all the different offerings (no matter how bad they were) here on the islands! I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from Champion Supermarket here in [downtown] Papeete, French Polynesia on 31-July-2019 for XPF330, sampled a few minutes later here in Papeete, French Polynesia.

F: thin, white, quick gone. C: deep gold, clear. A: malty, honey, fruity, bit spicy, ginger bread. T: malty, sweet honey, ginger, bit herbal, fruity, bready, medium body and lower mineral carbonation, “craft beer” so ok, drinkable, 33cl bottle from Champion Moorea supermarket in Moorea.
