Bottle 33 cl. Not exactly golden in color, rather amber. The head was, short and fizzy and gone in seconds. Biscuit and toffee in the nose. Medium body, an initial caramel sweetness, but everything is quickly overpowered by a massive, lactic infection. Off big time. 120225

Sample (thanks omhper!). Hazy amber colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity, some floral, mild wooden and some mild toffee tones. Flavour is caramel, some toffee and mild wooden and oaty tones. Quite sweet overall. Homebrewish.

Misty amber body, darker, some off-white head. Fruity, wine-like aroma, malty. Odd. Lean, funky taste, lightly fruity-flowery, but clearly overattenuated and eaten up by bottle conditioning perhaps, or before. Tart. Oh well.
