Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is mainly hops. Flavour is hoppy bitterness along with an alcoholic style sting. Tastes more like a beer drink than a beer. Quite boring and empty beer in my opinion.

Bottle, 5%. Weak champagne aroma. Clear yellow colour. The cremant gives an OK citric flavour, but otherwise it is a bit boring. Refreshing, I guess.

(33cl bottle, with thanks to Saarlander) Clear, pale golden colour with a small creamy white layer. Slightly sweet, slightly grainy aroma with a melange of distinctive vinous fruity notes of grapes and green apples. Sweet-bitter flavour, quite slim bodied with a moderate carbonation. Initially short malty, then vinous fruity taste that lasts up to the finish, which is dry, short and vinous-fruity. Interesting and uncommon brew.

Bottle at the Düsseldorf Gathering. Sparkling, golden body. Found some di-acethyl in the aroma besides the hops. Lightly sweet but mainly flat flavour.

Poured a light yellow to almost clear, with a thin white head. Aroma was of a hoppy harvest and some fruit. The flavor was a bitter rich malt and some uncommon spice finish that i can not put my typical tongue on.

Toweringly huge, but very solid, rapidly collapsing head, white, fed by lively carbonation in a Chablis-like coloured beer; lace. Distinctly winey nose, white wine, malonic acid, fresh green leaves, lemonjuice and somewhere pale malts. Disturbingly, it’s not at all a jumble, but perfectly integrated! In the taste, the balance tilts to the barley, rather than the grape; dry "à souhait", pale malts dominated, little pinch of fresh (winey) sourishness in the finish. Just not grapey. Fizzy MF, dry but nearly absent aftertaste, just a metallic reminiscence and some undistinct sweetness: my only point of dissention. I owe marcusm an apology, even when he’s not aware of it. When he first posted enthusiastically about this beer, my (silent) reaction was one of disbelief - a gimmick, a non-event. Brother was I wrong, this rocks. Thanks, Marcus! Needs to be served very cold, warming up dulls it.
