33cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours muddy brown with some floaties and a fairly short-lived head. Looks quite ugly, but smells nice. Fruity and citrussy with notes of pine, tropical fruits and just hints of roasted malt and grass. Fresh, fruity and moderate sweet with nice hoppy flavours and pleasant bitterness. Easy to drink and very enjoyable.

33 cl bottle @ home. Murky brown color. Frothy off white head. Doesn't look too appealing really. Aroma's: actually quite NEIPA-ish: fruity, juicy, but also some chocolate. Retronasal it's dank, light veggies, light bitter. Flavor is light bitter chocolate, light malty sweet, fruity. Medium bodied. Long finish, light bitter. Cheers Jan & Charlotte!

Keg at MK BG, 19/10/17. Murky mahogany brown with a well presented beige cap. Nose is big on berry fruits, raspberry jam, light charring, earthy scorch, cocoa whisper. Taste comprises mellow roast, light pine needle, cocoa rub, charr, dried red berries, sweet elements, Turkish Delight. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a peppering of earthy hop bitterness. Decent CDA .... pulls together well at the end.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - bottled on 20-09-17 - BB 20-09-18, at Koht, 20171026) The beer poured dark brown and cloudy. Its head was small and white. Aroma had fruitiness, citricness, floralness and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, citricness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste had fruitiness, burnt malts and bitterness. An interesting experiment but not really my thing.
