Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - definitely very lively. Golden when it settles. Nose - cheesy and a touch of honey. Sulphur. Taste - more cheesy malt on top of stale malt. Palate - light to medium bodied and cloying. Overall - not good at all. Suspect better on cask and this can’t be what the brewer intended.

500ml clear glass bottle (boo!) from Beers of Europe. Pours hazy yellow, thin white head. Aromas are dusty, old hops, then dusty, old malt. Taste is light sweet, a bit cloying, more dust. Bit fizzy. Overall - floor sweepings.

Bottle 500ml (AbM)
Slightly hazy yellow color, small white head. Light lemon, yeast and grainy paper in the nose. Light to medium bodied. Lots of similar grainy flavors like in many organic beers. And yes, this seems to be the organic beer! Lime, grass, almost ginger like hop spiceyness. Restless. I am not big fan of organic beer flavors.
