Lots of lime hop notes from the sorachi ace. Overly sweet maltiness, some paperiness from oxidisation

Taster showing deep amber with sparse white foam. The nose shows moderately intense sweet notes of Belgian yeast. The palate is well carbonated and light bodied. Moderately intense Belgian yeast throughout with a moderate pilsner bitterness along with it. Bitterness goes a little bit too long

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and spicy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and spicy hops, leading to a bitter finish.

Wunderschönes Fläschchen und ein ungewöhnliches Aroma nach Pfirsich. Im Trunk setzt sich das fort, leicht alkoholisch, feinbitter, leicht barleyweinig. Im Abgang nussig, Wein. Schöner Absacker.
