Can, 0.44l. Aroma is caramelly, floral and dried fruity. Pours clear dark golden color with thin creamy off-white head, nice lacing and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts medium sweet and rich toasted malty, following is dried fruity and herbal, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Golden quality…

Bottle at Goblet ZG, thanks Hoptimist! Hazy deep golden body, off-white head. Honeyish malty aroma, bit yeasty, light floral hoppy touches, somewhat stale. Dry taste, flat, herbal, lightly floral, yeasty, somewhat astringent, ending herbal and with low bitterness. The hoppy aspects are fine, the rest - less so.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers! Aroma is earthy, malty, straw, slightly vegy and a bit stale. Taste is a bit of wet straw, and grain with hints of fruit. Not really for me.

0,44 l can. Pours hazy amber with small, quickly dissipating off white head. Some floating yeast that takes eternity to settle. Aroma is sweet, malt, caramel, little grassy hop notes. Taste is heavy sweet and medium bitter. Body is full, thick and carbonation subtle. Finish is bittersweet. Not my thing. Home brew vibe.

Dark golden with off white head - Malt aroma - Malt body with hints of caramel and a nice gentle hop flavour with some nice bitterness - Malt flavours and hop flavours that goes dry in the end - This was nice
