Bottle at the Room 118 tasting, Tulip Hotel Bodegraven, post BBF 6 day 1 26/09/14 thanks to Ian. Hazed golden orange with a moderately appointed off white covering. Nose is citric rinds, bitter orange, trace of spice. Taste comprises orange squash, light sour fruit, citric peel, straw. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation with a little soapyness in the close. So so.
