A well balanced combination of rich malty flavours with a touch of caramelised grain on top, balanced with a lively quantity of both American late addition hops and British bittering hops. Hops: Fuggle, Motueka, Experimental 256 & Cascade.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear, dark amber with a lacing, beige head. Very discreet aroma, slightly caramellish. Light body, lowish carbonation, nutty, some burned caramel and a dry finish - with a very subdued bitterness. But for once a non-infected Bluestone - yeah! 220318

0,5 flaske fra Meny Borups alle, København, på hytta okt-17: brunrød rav med kort, storboblet skum. Småsur aroma og smak av overmodne røde bær og halvvisne citrusfrukter. Stram og ufrisk bitterhet i ettersmaken. Lurer på om det er noe feil her, da den nesten ikke er karbonert. Mesteparten gikk i vasken.
