Virtually no head over fully hazy orange-amber beer. Coriander, citrus peel, strawberry, but not inviting. As a watered-down sangria that stood too long. Sourish, strawberry flavour again, like a strawberry liqueur mixed with diluted lactic acid. Light to medium bodied, alcohol fully hidden. Strange, is it meant to be like a Flemish sour, or is it simply infected?

Warning: early amateur rating from brief notes that I found when cleaning out the home office.
Listed as "Unicum", but since there was a "Unicum Blond" as well on the list, we can conclude it was the Amber. Got a mere 5/10, so I didn't like it.
