330ml bottle. Barely clear, copper-ish, dark amber colour with huge, thick, firm, creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Grassy, minimally earthy herbal, hoppy aroma, a hints of mint and eucalyptus, shallot, a cautious touch of peach. Taste is grassy and minimally floral hoppy, old dried petal pot-pourri, a peppery spicy touch of mint and shallot; oily texture. Not bad, but too close to fragrance oil, Holzspielzeugyogaräucherstäbchenganzheitlichkeit.

Bottle shared by Cuso. Hops centered, resiny, orange, light grapefruit. Assertive caramely bready toasted malty base, only slightly below hops and bitterness in intensity.

Tap. Hazy dark orange color with big eggshell head. Aroma is wet cellar, tangerines, orange, a bit spruces, cooked cabbage (DMS). Taste is orange, some fussle oils, a herbal bitterness. The finish is intense and gives a boozy impression. Medium carbonation. Not excellent, and surprisingly unclean compared to their APA, which I liked much more. 5-3-5-3-9Tap, apparently the recipe has been tweaked. Much, much better than I remember it. Aroma is grapefruit, bready, tangerines, orange. Taste is the same, with a touch of petrol. Medium carbonation, oily mouthfeel. Much, much cleaner than I remember it. Good job!Tap again, served by the brewer. This is much fresher and has a very nice balance. Same vocabulary as before, but tastier and fresher. 7-5-6-3-15

Draught at CBF Wien, shared by Sebilinz, many thanks.
Dark amber to copper, hazy body, with a big, stable, creamy, lacing, yellowish head.
Aroma of sweet berries, orange, citrus, caramel, grass, some herbs, some bubblegum.
Tastes of caramel, berries, citrus, grass, some herbs, some bubblegum
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes medium bitter, zesty, grassy, a bit herbal, a bit fruity, a bit sweet.
Nice one, but not so special. Hoppy and quaffable, but I’m missing something. Enjoyed their APA much more, while this is still a good beer.
