Bottle, 75cl corked. An unclear, golden beer with lots of floaties and an off-white head. Pale malt, yeast notes, some alcohol, citrus, apples and a spicy peppery hop note in the aroma. The flavor is quite strange, without me being able to point out what makes it strange. There’s a herbal and grainy flavor with pale malt and a decent bitterness, maybe it’s just the mix of flavors I find strange, or maybe there’s something I couldn’t pin. Warming and dry mouthfeel, yet sweetish. Quite bitter, herbal finish. Sure a drinkable beer, but as already mentioned, also a strange one. (080731)
