[as White Hag Brett Pale Ale, 2016, no 217 of 333]. Bottiglia. Un arco olfattivo dominato dallo speziato. L'intensità olfattiva è normale, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è ramato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è nella norma e c'è anche una componente moderatamente acidula. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è intenso. Il tetto della bocca porta sentori di miele, frutta secca, erbaceo, agrumi, arancia amara, mandarino, cannella, erbe aromatiche, papaya, frutta tropicale, frutta disidratata, mandorla fresca, mela, chiodi di garofano, zenzero e vaniglia.

On tap at Haandfest. A clear, pale golden beer with a nice white head leaving curtains. The aroma has an earthy, woody touch, with piney, citrusy hops, some peach and a malty touch. It's semi-dry, nicely carbonated and with a fine bitterness. Peach, pine cones and citrus zest, with quite a few notes of the barrels. Not much funk going on. Lasting finish. A beer with too much earthy, woody almost cellar-ish aromas and flavors. 170526

Bottle from McHughs, no 33 of 333. Hazy gold with a medium white head. Aroma is lots of citrus. Flavour is bitter lemon, fresh fruit, dry bitterness in the base. Lingering full mouth finish. Excellent stuff,
