14th August 2008. Hazy amber beer that erupted like vesuvias on opening! Dry and crisp it has such a pronounced fruity note that I had to double check I was not drinking a fruit beer. Very dry finish with a hint of medicinal bitterness. A bit different.

Clear pinky-copper color, big cloudy white head. Aroma is not very strong: candy lemonade or lavander and citrus. Same kind of herbal lemonady rasberry and rosewater flavor. Plastic, artifical. Fizzy. Quickly vanishing aftertaste. Odd brew.

Starts off as a gusher. Frothy, pink tinged head. Murky, peachy-pink body. Good lacing on the head. Aroma is pretty nice too with raspberry, yeast, rotting fruits and sugar. Now the bad: it is undrinkably salty and very yeast forward. Mouth feel is dry, dry, dry. A complete drain pour, that started off looking and smelling fine. A brewing mistake? A crappy bottle? Bad recipie? I am not sure, but the stuff in my glass was horrible.
