Draught @ Karl Strauss Brewing - Downtown, San Diego. Pours slightly hazy golden with an offwhite head. Aroma of malt, caramel, light dusty, little wood, old hops, fruit. Flavor is sweet, light bitter, malt, caramel, grass, old fruity hops, alcohol. Medium body, soft to average carbonation, sweet finish with warming alcohol. Disappointing, not fresh at all, the 7 taste score is friendly. 300718

Bottle, 650 ml, at Pivoteka, Zagreb. Shared with others. Hoppy, ripe fruit, apricot, marmalade. Malty, caramel backbone. Heavy sweet, moderate bitterness. Medium bodied. Looks like it's not the freshest bottle.

Bottle, thanks Eddan. Clear golden/orange with a white head. Hoppy aroma and taste of pineapple, mango and some caramel. Also grapefruit and light malt. The finish was bitter. A tasty one.

Bottle at Drie Dorstige Herten. Aroma of caramel and some rye. Fresh taste of white grape, caramel and bitter malt. Nice, but the bottle was too old.
