Ciemnobrązowa barwa, piana oblepiająca szkło. Aromat cytrusowo-ziołowy, po chwili wyczuwalne nuty ciemnych słodów. W smaku bardzo dobry balans pomiędzy ziołową goryczką i ciemnymi słodami. Żyto nadaje temu piwu bardzo dużej pijalności. Nasycenie na niskim poziomie.

Barwa ciemnozłota, opalizujące, biała piana, średnioobfita, dość drobna, minimalnie tylko osiada na szkle. W aromacie cytrusy - pomarańcz, grejpfrut, trochę lasu. W smaku półsłodkie, wyraźne nuty chmielowe, czyli cytrusy przede wszystkim, delikatna podbudowa słodowa. Goryczka średnia, przyjemna, wysoka pijalność, wysycenie i treściwość w normie. Bardzo przyzwoite piwo, akurat na ugaszenie pragnienia po ciężkim dniu. Śmiało można brać i się cieszyć smakiem.

Bottle, 4.7%. Good caramelly hop aroma. Almost clear greyish copper colour. Very small stable white head. The flavour starts off with a distinct bitterness. Then comes a caramelly hop note, and later a rough bitterness, not quite clean.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy amber with airy white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with notes of malt and yeast and fruity touches. Bitter, hoppy flavour with estery and grassy notes and touches of malt. Bitter, hoppy afteraste. Rather watery but not that bad.

Piana beżowa, zniknęła w ekspresowym tempie. Z butelki aromat fajny, torfowy, po przelaniu do szkła aromat niknie. Czuć przede wszystkim wędzonkę torfową, z tyłu czekolada i paloność. Mało intensywnie. W smaku za to jest dużo lepiej. Na pierwszy plan wychodzi wędzonka torfowa, z tyłu czekolada, paloność. Wysoka goryczka, nieco zalegająca, alkoholowa. Alkohol bardzo nieułożony, nieprzyjemnie szczypie w gardło. Piwo w odczuciu pełne, gęste, gładkie. Na pewno jest niewyleżakowane, dać mu parę miesięcy więcej i po ułożeniu alkoholu z pewnością będzie dużo lepsze. Teraz jest przeciętnie.
