Bottle, 13.1%. Mild paint thinner aroma. Cloudy dark orange colour. Very small frothy white head. The flavour starts off alcoholic. Not undrinkable, but strong. Then there is some yeastiness. Finishes with a yeasty note and more alcohol. A bit sourish in the finish, too.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a cloudy golden with a tiny, rough white head. Sweet fruity nose. Strangely not that full-bodied, lots of fresh fruit and then comes a shot of vodka! The alcohol really is massive and almost burns your throat through the finish. 200210
