Small, rather stable yellow head over (cold)hazed amber beer. Quite some caramel upon opening, parsley, toffee, but also something chemical, vaguely smelling of shoepolish. Bitter leafy flavour however, autumn leaves, bittering hops. Ends metallic, with some pine. Warming up, the caramel returns to the flavour, as well withs some apple(skins). Feels very carbonated, almost fizzy, which works against the sweetness of the caramel, adding some acidity. Very slick, light to medium bodied. Nose wasn't exactly a delight, but for the rest, pretty much OK.

Buying it at the Frastanzer brauerei, august 2024. Best before 11/24, opening it yesterday, at Epalinges with my wife. Beautiful body, classical red ale, malty and smooth for the style, touch of freshness, light, light bitterness, a bit watery.

Optisch klar und rötlich kupferfarben. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone wirkt wässerig-flaumig und hält mäßig gut. Im Duft fruchtig-floral und kräuterartig mit Noten von reifen Zitrusfrüchten, reifem Steinobst und Kräuterlimo. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, angenehm spritzig, zart malzig bis fruchtig und deutlich hopfenbitter. Im Mund präsentiert sich ein sehr schlanker Körper mit wenig Viskosität, sehr feiner Rezenz, deutlicher Adstringenz und entsprechender Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und Aromatisch bleibt dieses Red Ale eher trocken und kräuterartig hopfenbetont bitter. Die karamellige Malzigkeit, sowie die fruchtigen Noten werden sehr in den Hintergrund gedrückt. Etwas mehr Ausgewogenheit würde diesem Bier wahrscheinlich nicht schaden - auch wenn es sich sehr gut trinken lässt und alles andere als schlecht erscheint. Aufgrund der doch recht deutlichen Bittere und Adstringenz ist die Drinkability etwas gebremst, aber trotzdem durchaus gut. Im Nachtrunk kommt die karamellige Malzigkeit nochmal schön auf und weicht zunehmend der trockenen, grasig-heuig-kräuterigen Hopfenbittere. Mein Fazit: Durchaus erfrischend, zart karamellig malzig und kräftig bitter. Ich finde es trotz einiger persönlicher Abstriche durchaus gut.

330 ml bottle. It‘s unclear amber with a creamy head. Floral hops, lemon zest, some metal, bitter orange, caramel, stone fruit. Dry zesty metal bitterness, some malty fruity sweetness. Medium to light bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry zesty fruity malty bittersweet finish. Quite a good very solid Irish Red.

Bottle. Hazy deep amber color with off-white head. Aroma is caramel, malt, mild grains. Taste is the same, not sweet, nicely balanced. Oily mouthfeel, medium carbonation. Good balance and drinkability, just a bit boring.

0.33 bottle. A label reminiscent of raspberry beer, a very attractive, amber-colored - but not red - unfiltered ale under a nice cap. The head is serious, hard, slightly off-white, long-lasting, nice. Aroma - malty, slightly caramel, sweet, slightly fruity, delicious. The beer is quite watery. Caramel malty, bittersweet. There is also some sour taste. Bitterness okay. The whole beer is okay.

Málnasörre emlékeztető címke, szép kupak alatt nagyon tetszetős, borostyán színű-de nem vörös- szuretlen ale. Habja komoly, kemény, picit piszkosfehér, tartós, szép. Illata- malátás, picit karamelles, édeskés, picit gyümölcsös, finom. A sör elég vizes. Karamelles malátás, keserédes. Mellette valami savanykás íz is előjön. Keserűség rendben. Az egész sör rendben.
