(Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy amber with a tiny off-white head. Oily aroma of hops. Flavour full of caramel with some underlying sweetness, which quickly drowns in the overwhelming bitterness. 290905

An orange beer with a nice beige head. The aroma is spicy sweet with notes of oranges, peach, and yeast, as well as a spice I can’t put a name to. The flavor is smooth sweet with notes of oranges, yeast, peaches, nuts, as well as a hoppyness, that almost makes it spicy - I wonder if the Styrian Goldings is responible for this - I don’t know the variety that well. The end is nicely bitter - and bisquity.
