Perfumed hop aroma, delicate balance of malt and fruit with a dry hop finish. A pale amber coloured refreshing session ale.

(bottle, bought in Dortmund, Germany) Hazy, amber colour with a short, off-white foamy head. Aromatic floral and resiny hops aroma with fruity berry notes and a touch of liquorice. Bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied but far away from being watery; soft carbonation. Slightly toasted malty base with berries and a pleasant, slightly spicy, resiny hop-character; dry and moderately bitter finish, again with pleasant fruity accents. This one shows once more that a good beer does not necessarily need a high abv.

An orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet fruity with light flowery hoppy notes as well as caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and fruit, leading to a dry end. The body is thin.

Bottle brought over from Leeds, England, by a friend of mine. Bought in a special beer shop in Leeds.Light brown color. Small white head. My bottle was over carbonated, errupted and played volcano one second after being opened. A bit wine like scent. Starts of with a bit burnt taste, turns to cream and butterscotch, ends a bit acid. Very low bitterness. Might be the original volcano thing, bu twas now pretty much without carbondioxide and flat/stale.I’d call it complex but not balanced.
