(Bottle 50 cl) Hazy golden, almost without any head and very low in carbonation. Huge, solid yeast sediment. Light aroma of caramel. Lightly malty with weak notes of caramel and nuts. Light hoppy finish without being more than moderately bitter. Very drinkable. 111005

Cloudy golden color. Quite nice earthy hop aroma. The flavor is quite simple, but with a strong bitterness, pretty aromatic.

A hazy dark orange beer with a small white disappearing head. The aroma is of celery leaves, malt, caramel, and hints of spices. The flavor is very hoppy and malty with a fine dry bitter end.

Bottled version. Reddish amber. Firmly malty, with crystal malt character. Well hopped, rich in chocolate flavour. Really bitter finish.
