--Bottled at Pressklubben, Stockholm. -- Clear golden, small head. Aroma of lemon and jalapeño. Tart and citric with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Bell pepper and citric acid. Fairly low bitterness. The base beer is pretty basic, as far as lambics go. Could be awesome with better lambic base.

Pieprz ziolowy moze faktycznie. Ale calosc jakas taka nieporywajaca. Posmak jest znow pieprzowy. Drewniano taniczne kapke. Nie porywa ale pojebanany momentami pozytywnie

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced from online. Pours clear gold with a small, bubbly, white head. Lovely, nuanced character, with modest sweetness, delicious lightly tart citrus character, a bit of lime peel, subtle zest, touches of grass, lemon, relaxed acidity. Light bodied with delicate carbonation. Tart finish, lightly salty, with further citrus peel, mellow zest, nips of grass and pale wood. Super drinkable. Overall, loved it.

375ml bottle at home. From Etre most likely. The aroma is musty, funk, wet hay, feta, fragrant, peppery spice, floral, pot pourri, herbal accents, gooseberry and white currant. The taste is dry, tart, puckering, zingy, lemon - lime, fragrant, floral, spicy, peppery juniper, gooseberry, herbal, tart white grape, lactic and a kick of acidity with a dry, spiced finish. Medium body and lightly carbonation. A unique combination for sure. Works pretty well to be honest. Novel.
