(Bottle 33,5 cl) Beautiful amber coloured ale with a moderate but quite neat head. Unfortunately also this Mac suffers from the weird bon-bon like tang making this a dubious pleasure. More than dubious. Also the Macs suffer a bit from the low alcohol - some of their styles could deserve more potency. I really would like to rate this brewery higher, but they really have to go through their product line and get rid of their problems. 120504

Bottled. Pale nut brown. Dusty metal aroma. Sweet, extremely short flavour, yeasty finish. Very disappointing.

An amber beer with a fine but disappearing head. The aroma is slightly sweet and malty. The flavor is a weird sweet malty one - a lot like the other Mac beers - is it the yeast? The flavor also contains notes of caramel and ends on an OK bitterness. A pretty thin beer.
