Many thanks for this beer to kevnic2008. Piwo amber Ale przypominalo mi podwijne IPA, chmiel tanczyl w nozdrzach, zapach zgnilych grejfrutow. W smaku wyrazna kwaskowos cytrusowa zmieszana z czerstwym chlebem oblanym miodem lub syropem klonowym. Ciekawe doznania, tresciwe, moc alkoholu nieco uderzala do glowy. Kolor piwa to ciemny bursztyn, ze spora iloscia blota drozdzowego, piana niewielka i srednio trwala.

Bottle. Slightly hazy Amber with big, long lasting off white head. Massive fruity hops, like a tropical fruit cocktail with lychee, grapes, passion fruit, pineapple. Some sweet grains, nuts and cake. Over-medium sweet with light bitter finish. Medium bodied with creamy and slight sticky feel. Really good IPA, super hoppy without being very bitter. Looooove this. I can’t believe the low scores on this, if it was an American beer people would go nuts over it. But maybe it’s an improved recipe or I had a really fresh one...

Thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts malty, modest spicy, sweetish background. Light notes of apricot. Finish with an alcoholic touch, not too much. Quite drinkable. Not bad!

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, citrus fruits, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, spices, and caramel, leading to a bitter finish.

Bottled@330ml Peta1 Hazy amber color, small steady off-white head. Fruity, a bit malty aroma. Medium-bodied. Fruity with English hops, some sweetness. Lingering fruity sweetness. Very much English strong ale like. Suprise from France.

Bottle @ home [from trade with EricKok]. Clear dark orange to amber color, full sized off-white head that leaves good lacing. Lovely aroma of malts, hops and fruityness. Taste malts, hops, fruits. Medium to full body, medium carbonation. Nice one!
