Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega kirjutan igale õllele selle sama teksti. Hindamiseks teen vaid ticki.

Pours light golden/dark amber and transparent with a big frothy white head that shows quite good retention and nice lacing. Softly herbal and citric aroma with a slight soapy feel. Not too bright. Taste has mild crackery and caramel malts base, herbal/grassy notes, slight citrus and a flowery hops finish. Medium sweet and medium bitter with a finish that is slightly on the bitter side. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation and an overall quite easy mouthfeel. Not impressive, but very much ok.
