Heftiges Gushing beim Öffnen der Flasche. Im Glas schöne Trübe, Schaum ebbt schnell ab (Teko Pokal). In der Nase Malz und Feige, fruchtig. Im Trunk erst Alkohol, dann sanft Beeren, leichte Süße, im Abgang wieder Alkohol, bitter, dezente Honignoten. Könnte einen Schuss weniger alkoholisch und dafür fruchtiger schmecken.

350ml bottle: shared between 4 at the September 2014 Shrewsbury beer exchange. Poured a cloudy gold with a white crown. The nose was slightly yeasty and bready with a squeezed lemon rind hint. Flavours were again bready and yeast but with less lemon rind and some spiciness. Detected no honey or fig traces. Found it OK though, if a little strange.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Paul for sourcing this one. Pours hazy gold with a thick, creamy off-white head. The nose holds lightly doughy pale bread, honeydew, hay, melon. Light-medium sweet flavor with some grains and hay, doughy white bread, light yeast, rindy lemon. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation and an airy mouthfeel. Light sweet flavor with husky grains, slight lemon meringue, straw. Good stuff.
