12oz can brought home from Akureyri pours a hazy neon orange with some soapy, lacing white head. Nose is interesting, fruit roll up, some muddled berry, a little sweetened wine, dehydrated strawberry. Flavor has indiscriminate berry, bubblegum, honey, perfume, strawberry, Moscato. Finishes dry and fruity. Interesting, the components seem like they don’t work, but it all sort of meshes.

33cl Can from Uzywki Swiata - Radom. Piwo ma srednia pianke ladna ale szybko opadajaca. Intensywny zapach owocow lesnych. W smaku ostro kwaskowe, niebieskie owoce i typowe cechy belgijskiego witbiera. Lekko metnawe z drobinkami owocowych pesteczek. Fajne intensywna owocowosc pozostaje na dlugo na podniebieniu. Takie piwo na lato jest bardzo pijalne a nie bez wyrazu eurolager.
