Bottle. Cloudy yellow, white lace. Light mealy malt, a bit fruitiness, some aromatic hops. Medium body, a bit goopy on the palate. Quick lemonny, grassy finish. A bit too clunky to be light and summery.

Bottle by Beerhunter111. Relatively clean beer, easily drinkable with moderate carbonation. Rather neutral in flavour, restrained flavours of honeyish malt and noble and zesty hops.

Butilka: Golden, hazy, smaller and slowly collapsing loose white head; mild - almost a bit sweetish - grainy to dusty nose with a distinctive bitter backbone; moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied and a bit tart; lingering drier lemony and hoppy finish, balanced by some sweet spots. Surely not great, still well drinkable…

0,33l bottle at home courtesy of Beerhunter111, big thanks. BB 23.04.2016. rather light yellow lightly hazy color, small white head. smells leans more towards a Saison than a APA for me. rather acidic / citric, a light fruitiness (which seems to come from the yeast), rhubarb like notes, some peach, light notes of cinnamon, lemon grass, also light notes of christmas cookies and cornflakes. Interesting aromas, but they dont blend together too well. medium body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. taste has some lemon grass, some herbs, a bit acidic again, light yeasty fruitiness, notes of thyme and oregano. finishes dry, overall rather light, with a light bitterness and notes of lemon grass and herbs. OK beer, not too special, a bit one-demensional on the taste even (mostly lemon grass and herbal notes), a bit boring to drink even.

330ml bottle. Barely clear, faint, yellow-ish pale golden colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sparsely lemon-disguised grainy malty aroma with a touch of hay. Taste is pale malty, bitter hoppy overtones, cautious hints of lemon, a spicy touch of hay. Overall Pilsener-like clumsy.
