Dark ruby-brown colour, medium-sized beige head and some lace. Toasted, citrusy nose. Light-bodied. Toasted, citrus, some fruityness. As it is 5% it feels a bit too watery. Otherwise flavour is ok.

Bottle at L42. It pours dark hazy brown with a medium beige head. The aroma is fresh, bitter - sweet, juicy, earthy roast, stewed orange citrus, roasted malt, coffee grounds and toast. The taste is dry, bitter, earthy roast, charred wood, pithy, soapy, peppery spice, citrus vibes and tannin with a drying finish. Medium and high, foamy carbonation. Aroma is quite nice, but taste is a bit too soapy.
