330ml bottle from Plonk, Canberra. Brown amber colour, tan foam head that dissipates away to a thin layer and aroma of malt, roasty, toffee. Taste is dark malty, grains, milk chocolate, earthy fruity with some tangy bitterness. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry chocolatey finish. Quite OK.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of ginger and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and caramel, leading to a bitter and metallic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Somewhat sherry-like aroma - and then this typical gluten free character that I don’t really know how to describe. Medium body, a little fruit and malt and again some oxidized sherry notes. Dry and bitter finish with quite some acidity. But actually surprisingly decent. 220608

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden deep orange to brown with a lacing white head. Strange spiced and chemical aroma. Flavour is strange chemical and light caramel malt. Quite flat flavoured and with a strange chemical added note. Ends with a mild roasted malt afterall.
