En mjuk och välbalanserad ale där björksavens lätta sötma ger stöd till mosaichumlens tropiska nyanser.

På våren stiger saven från björkens rotsystem och ger knopparna kraft att utvecklas till blad. Då tappas vår björksav, en frisk och något söt, klar vätska som vi använder i bryggprocessen.

Bottle courtesy of Moritz at Dave's, Unterhaching München RB tasting group, Friday 21st July 2023. Nice fruity effort, hazy yellow with a white head, sort of rushed this one, however it was good.

Bottle. Murky ashen amber. Shoes, flat, stone. Taste is sparkly; at the same time bitter edgy, oily and sweet. Edgy aftertaste.

Light Amber, big creamy white head. Nose is a bit strange, grainy and dry. Flavor is a bit the same, wee bit of caramel, astringency, some weird piney herbal flavors.
