Bottle 0.33l at home (via alesbymail). BBE 30/6/2013. Sorry but there is something wrong with this one. Bottle is infected and undrinkable. Very sour in a very bad way. Normally 0.5 points but for a sake of humanity and good try 1.5.

Bottle from A Tutta Birra, Milan, bb 30/6/2013
Hazy amber color, with medium sized head. Very nice aroma of fruity hops, fresh and mellow, with a touch of tropical fruits (passion and pineapple). The mouthfeel is round but quite dry; strong flavor of caramel, and strong bitterness; there are lots of hop resins and some orange fruitiness, but also too much character from the yeast, leading to some astringency in the final, and possibly some suspicious sourness too.
Not well balanced.

330ml bottle from Ales By Mail
BBE 30 Jun 2013 - Pours dark murky red with a foamy white head. Aroma of sour berries, hints of fruity hops, caramel and toffee. Taste is quite weird, with mix of caramely malts, sour berries and fruity hops. Hints of lingonberries and grapefruit. Finish is a sour and bitter mess. Most likely an infeceted bottle. Drainpour.

On tap at the Three Tubs, Bristol 14/10/2012. Amber with a slight, off-white head and moderate carbonation. Plenty of tropical fruits, with some jammy sweetness, solid malts and a dryish finish. Enjoyable.
