Bottle from Beers of Europe, online. Pours a clear gold with small but tight white head, nice retention and lacing. Aroma of biscuit malt, floral and light fruity citrus hops. Taste has an aromatic floral and resin quality about it, some fruitiness in the middle with a dry and moderate bitterness in the finish. An acquired taste this one but it is certainly hoppy. Medium bodied and chewy. I like it but not enough to buy another one.

Bottled (from K Citymarket Kivihaka). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, some fruity and mild bready notes. Flavour is floral, herbal, some grassy and mild earthy tones. Strange bitterness.

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Pours a clear light golden colour with a one finger fluffy white head. Aromas of citrus, doughy white bread, biscuits and peppery spice. Taste is again citrusy with lemon and grapefruit, biscuits, herbal notes and lots of peppery spice on the dry hoppy finish. Medium body, average carbonation and oily mouthfeel. Decent summery thirst quencher.

Bottle, smallish head, clear and just a touch deep gold color, malt and hay with some herbs, mellow strong herbal shrubby bitterness. Nice and really satisfying.
