Bottiglia. All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sottobosco. La finezza olfattiva è normale, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido appare limpido. Il colore è giallo dorato carico. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è normale. La forza gustativa è normale e si prolunga in modo sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Sulla lingua si riportano indizi di miele, crosta di pane, agrumi, frutta secca e frutta passita.
