Fles gedeeld met Roelzie. Het is een troebel amberkleurig bier met een volle beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van mout en gist. De smaak is moutig en zacht fruitig met een lekker zoetje.

Towering off-white head, build by slow gushing over copper-golden beer. Ridiculous head utterly prevents any nasal perception. Human sweat, sweet disappearing flavour, peach. Alcohol enhances the sweetness. Overcarbonated, thinnish feel. Here has been a serious brewing fault.

Pours a tad unclear, lighter amber or darker blonde. Small white head fades fast. Intense aroma that is noticably unfresh for a beer this young. Tad cheesy, hints of DMS, perhaps a light yeaststress as well? definately isovaleric acid though. Isoamyl acetate (banana esters) shine trough as well, but are overpowered by the aspects mentioned above. Taste is sharp. Thin body and higher carbonation ( a crowd pleaser, but no Kraddel Pleaser ), stressed yeast, isovaleric acid. Mild DMS, i keep thinking, yet thats the one i'm most unsure of, since it's the lightest in the balance. A nice level of bitterness that isn't bound to the beer that well, and enhances the sharpness, pointing towards sourness (which it isn't) .

Perhaps a few things could be improved here. Fresher ingredients, better fermentation control, an open, rolling boil of sufficient time, and more malts (leaving more body and even a hint of sweet to pair the bitterness better ) would be a good start. The beer also seems to lack (desired) aroma of both malts and hops, leaving all the more playground for off-flavors to shine. Maybe a few aromatic malts, and a late or even whirlpool hop adition , might bring a different balance to the beer.
