A good and juicy beer, a fresh one for the morning. This one is not so sour due to the beetroot, smooth, fruity, yeasty, dry, a bit sour, a bit syrupy, original, refreshing after a long day at the aquaparc, on sunday, 21.07.21, at Epalinges.

Цвет реально крутой, прям насыщеной свеклы. Вкус очень однобокий, это реально просто варенная свекла, и при этом нет ничего другого, даже сальцы.

Tap @MBCC 2024, Red Session. Clear red, pink head. Fruity, red berry aroma, not much beetroot yet. Sweet berry flavour, maybe some beetroot, but definately not the earthy kind. Must be ube…!
