26/IX/15 - on tap @ Borefts 2015 (Bodegraven) - BB: n/a (2015-1363) Thanks to 77ships, Elmanana+1 and the Israeli beer tickers scene for sharing today's beers!

Clear red to amber beer, creamy beige head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: very sweet, ripe melons, malty, caramel, some exotic fruits. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter start, some citrus, exotic fruits, bitter, malty. Aftertaste: fruity, resinous, bit sourish, lovely brew!

Tap at Borefts. Clear ruby with off white head. Lots of resinous hops, mariuana, dank hops, lime peel, thick sweet malts with a bit of a roasted touch. Hops are very overpowering here. Quite sweet with over medium bitter finish. Over medium bodied. Ok but don’t get much red ale.
