0.33l bottle from trade with kappldav123. Thank you David! No label, but a etiquette hanging round the bottle neck. On the pour this one gives the glass a quite cloudy looking warm honey orange colored body. The initially medium sized head quickly fizzles away - somewhat loudly,only leaving small islands of head. The aroma is actually quite nice. Sweet and orange fruity. A little bit like a mild non sour Berliner Weisse. Nice and a little different. It has a mild papery and quite dry tasting flavor. Not directly fresh. In the mouth it's mild oily and it's just below average on the carbonation. Papery for sure but not too disturbing really. Grapefruit? Nah, can't say that I get too much of that - at least not the fruity part. The bitter peel part, sure. All the way. More coffee bitter. Yeah, green quite bitter coffee beans and some white chocolate tones Slightly fruity hints in the finish and a long long lasting bitter tail. Quite a different one this, not bad at all. 27.01.2017

Yessss, another 0,33 l botttle from kappldav123.Thanks a lot! Unclear golden, nearly orange in the glass, very small head. Hopy on the nose with a fruity background. Taste starts with a decent hop bitterness, also dry grapefruit. Increasing hop bitterness in the second part. Little bit medical. Grainy bedding. Crisp. Dry bitter grainy aftertaste. Nice but limited drinkability.

Huge thanks to Brewckau for that bottle. Looks awesome. Beer in the glass golden-orange, nice head. Wonderful fruity-sourish aroma. Notes of grapefruit. Starts fine hoppy-flowery, grasy notes. Not too intense notes of grapefruit. More and more fruity, notes of orange and grapefruit, fine bitter background. Light sourish-bitter hints. Finish well balanced, a bit less fruity, hoppy-dry, some bitter aftertaste. Interesting one!
