Orange-golden colored, unclear, medium white head. Aroma is of caramel, some malt, sugar, bit spicy, some herbal notes. Taste follows the nose, medium sweet malt and caramel, brown sugar, light spices, light to medium herbal bitterness, some yeast. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Underwhelming... (bottle)

Certainly not at all what I was expecting but not necessarily bad. I’m not sure if this is the 2015 version, or 2016 - this is a live rating and the bottle looks different. Some florals and light mash malt. Light sweet finish. Not sure how it pours because I’m drinking it in the airport. Bottle from Tegut.

Bottle(.75l, big thanks to the Lake of...!) Deep golden, a bit unclear, small and slowly collapsing loose white head; sweet orangey-yeasty and sweet malty nose with a mild and dry spicy background; moderate to solid both sweet and bitter flavour, medium bodied; spicy peppery hops and warming alcohol in the honeyish finish, followed by a touch of cough-syrup. Well done…

(bottle, 75cl) Slightly hazy, golden colour with a short off-white foamy head. Biscuity malty aroma with traces of honey and alcohol, accompanied by present notes of flowery hops and a touch of citrus. Moderately sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a calm carbonation. Biscuity and mildly bready malty taste with fruity and floral hops, lingering into sweet-bitter finish with a touch of alcohol and honey in the aftertaste. Surprisingly good. 23.IX.15

Very big thanks to quack-duck for that one. Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, deep golden, nice small head. Starts quite strong, a bit moldy and alcoholic. More and more fruity-malty, notes of apricot. Warming malty finish. Fine hoppy-bitter aftertaste. Nice one!

0.75l bottle. Hazy golden with a mid-sized white head. Dusty hop aroma. Full-bodied, malty with apple flavours, some grassy hops. The label promises dryhoppiong with Tettnanger, so I expected more hop character. Not bad, but quite expensive!
