Big offwhite head. Clear coppery body. Fruity gooseberry aroma with citric pineapple notes. Dryish resiny spicy taste with citric wooden notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish mouthfeel. Dryish resiny roasty gooseberry aftertaste with mineraly spicy notes. Nice, but very sharp and aggressive. (0.65l bottle, from Kihoskh, Copenhagen.)
