Pours clear Amber into an English pint. Sickly head with good retention. Caramel aromas. Soft with dark caramel and mild raisin upfront turning to dry earth in the medium length finish. Highly sessionable.

zapach przyjemny, dość intensywny, świeży, bardzo zielonobutelkowy, do tego trochę jakby skórki z limonki albo sprita. lekkie nuty karmelowe, trochę zielonego pieprzu i przypraw korzennych w tle. kolor miedziany, klarowny, piana średnio obfita, całkiem ładna, dość dobrze się trzyma, beżowa. w smaku pełne, karmelowe, ciastkowe, pieczony chleb, słody i bardzo wysoka goryczka jak na styl. ziołowa, czysta, dość krótka, ale ściągająca. znowu zielony pieprz i może trochę zielonych części roślin. nasycenie średnie do wysokiego.
