Fluffy, bubbly white head, collapsing in small craters, some lace; very pale peach-yellow beer, hazy. "Creamy" nose - impossible to explain without blowing a hashish pipe - I suppose, short of experience. Notes of coffee - in a fully pale beer! Then hops to the fore, like a very-well hopped English ale. Quite bitter taste, bitterness growing even after first recognition, citrussy. Malt for balance is unmistakably. 25 IBU seems very low - it appears to be more. Notes of bitter grapefruit retronasal, gains also some hayaroma's. I have to admit it has a soft, creamy mouthfeel - I wasn’t expecting much of this, but it’s there allright. Surprisingly well-carbonised, but nowhere fizzy. Intruiging because of the rainwater, but interesting because of being one of the few organic beers worth its money. Good show - I hold this brewer in high esteem. Many thanks to the Dewberries!
