Bottle from O’Brien’s, Athlone [160815]
Light orange, very hazy, no head
Aroma - Spicy, yeasty, bit of lemon, some canned German Hefe notes?
Taste - OK, more like a Belgian Wit, yeast, soft lemon, quite fruity, touch of orange, soft spicy
Palate - Almost no carb, medium thin body, bit oily, quite sweet. Finish of sweet pale malts, lingering sweet fruits, bit spicy, clean palate.
Overall - Flat and a tad thin. Couldn’t detect the coconut, no idea about the gorse. This would be better on keg.
