Bottle sample at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks Stas. Hazy golden. Grapes, wine, fruitiness, alcohol, a bit of flowers, a bit of spiciness, sweetish, some alcoholic bitterness, medium-bodied. Too alcoholic.

Caňa en el V Artbeerfest Caminha 15..07..2017. (r03). Color claro con espuma blanca. Sabores maltosos frescos herbáceos con toques afrutados uvas blancas, ligeros avinados y suave acidez final. Cuerpo ligero fácil de beber algo denso. Original, buena.

Dull blond with no head. Aroma has citrus and the sharpness of a white wine. Flavour is a little tart but there’s a sweet element to it as well. Really dry and woody finish.

Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 33B/X3/25B-Super). Bottle 33 cl - Batch L170116 (BBF 12/2022). AROMA: medium-low citrus-like aroma with notes of orange, slight lime and a slight white wine character. neutral malt background with a gentle sweet note. barrel character not detected. APPEARANCE: gold color and clear. medium-low creamy white head with medium-low to low retention. TASTE: medium-low fruity notes (oranges, slight lemon), followed by an almost neutral grainy background. slight sulphury and yeasty faint note. medium-low bitterness with a dry and slightly bitter finish. no barrel character detected. PALATE: medium-low body with medium-low carbonation. OVERALL: altough it smells better than its more bland flavor, it is a very nice try of a good "portuguese" style.
