It is a pleasant and refreshing beer. The color is yellow and creamy. The taste is what I like: hop, malt and one side citrus, 04.05.2016. I think that I have bought this beer at the denner, Alle, drinking it at Bonfol during one of my trio there.

Appearance: Gusher alert! 3/4 of the content ended up on the table and floor. After five minutes of cleaning the half a glass left was coffee brown, very hazy and murky. Not very appetising.
Aroma: Light fruits, slight hops. Slight petrol.
Taste: Light fruits, dusty, quite bitter aftertaste. Long lasting.
Bought: Halle aux Boissons (Matran), 330 ml, CHF 5.95

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2016-2 thanks to Anstei]@ home. Clear slightly orange to golden color, full sized white to off-white head that lasts for a short while. Aroma is wheat, slightly malts, a bit floral and blossomy. Taste lightly malts, nice subtle hoppyness and subtle hop bitter initially, a slightly sweetish fruity hint and lingering bitterness in the finish. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Quite nice.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - hazy golden amber with some head. Nose - tonnes of tropical fruit, tonnes of yeast. Reminds me of Kernel. Very resiny. Taste - quite fruity yet drying smoked malt on the end. Palate - light to medium bodied with a tangy yet dry and smoky texture and a long dry smoky finish. Overall - interesting and quite good.

Bottle, courtesy of anstei. Hazy orange color with big white head. Aroma is grapefruit, grassy, a bit peppery, also tropical fruits, hard to detect actual smoked malts, but some associations are there. It’s also a bit malty. Taste is bready malts, grassy and herbal hops, fruits as well, dry, bitter. And there’s the smoke, it comes in an ashy way. Also a peppery sting. The smoke is really untypical here, but the mixture works out fine! High carbonation. I can understand why they call this "denim". It’s raw :P
