Good, bit irregular white head over finely carbonated orange-golden beer. Spicy, herbal, aromatic, Wurzig nose a mile out; herbs, cypress, pine, tad rosemary. Sourish, citrus, lime, kafir lime, lemonbalm, lemonthyme. Sunflower, immortelles, grapes and indeed grapeskins. Persistent head allows some creamy texture; quite well-carbonated, slick. Feels better bodied than 5% would warrant. Long lasting flavours. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!! Can somehow somebody revive this utter gem of a brewery? Pretty please!!!

Bottle shared. Almost clear golden. Quite some funk, soft wheat, kiwi, earthy. I don’t get grapes as such but there’s some spicy soft tannins and a bit of starfruit/kiwi/white grape that makes it a bit softer. Under medium sweet, a bit lighter sour and bitter. Medium bodied. Complex and subtle, really nice beer.

Little cloudy orange blond beer, small creamy white head, unstable, dissipates quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: marijuana, fruity, oysters, meaty, a little smoky, lemony, grapefruit. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: sour start, cheesy, pretty bitter, some apricots, grape skins. Aftertaste: funky, lemony, dry, spicy, acidic, sourish, fruity, little dirty, sulphur notes, bitter finish. Decent.
