Pours redder shade of amber. Looks clean, not really transparent. Aroma is malty, some rowan and hops there as well. Herbal hops. Taste has rowan bitterness, bit of resins and nice dry mouthfeel. So far the best from Birbant for me I guess.

Deep amber, dried strawberries, caramel and hoppy nose. Very much like a red ale with hoppiness. Light mouth, fairly hoppy but falls apart a bit. Not bad finish.

Bottle, 0.50l. Hazy amber orange color with medium soapy white head, yeast particles, nice lacing and sparkling appearance. Aroma of citrus, wheat, caramel and peach. Taste starts with light sweet malt and heavy citric sourness, following is wheaty and yeasty with some honey notes and moderate bitter finish. Medium body, creamy texture and average carbonation in palate. Damn’ good...

Strong bitterness, even some hops particles floating around. Starts with a decent wheaty sweetness, wheat also gives it more body. Long dry hoppy finish. Very good one.

Strong berry elderflowerish aroma, it dominates the taste as well. Also strong funky bubblegumish element. Very good.

Tap (BGM 2). W tym piwie piwowar mocno puscil wodze fantazji krzyzujac RIS’a z kwachem. Wyszla wybuchowa mieszanka, ktora bedzie budzic skrajnosci. Zaczynajac od barwy jest przyjemnie, niemal czarna, piana bezowa, slaba ale przy kwachu to nie dziwi. Aromat jest zdecydowanie kwaskowy, wisniowy i tlumi nuty palone. Smak idzie ta sama utarta sciezka. Jest duzo kwasnosci, wisni i gdzies daleko delikatne nuty palone. Posmak calkiem przyjemny slodko-kwaskowy. Ogolnie zdecydowana przewaga kwacha, ktorego fanem nie jestem ale plus za odwazny projekt. Na pewno znajdzie swoich odbiorcow.

słodki, intensywny zapach, owoce tropikalne, melon, mango, do tego bardzo lekki rozpuszczalnik. bursztynowy kolor, lekko opalizujące, piana dość przyzwoita choć bez szaleństw. pełne, słodowe, lekki karmel, wysoka, wyraźna goryczka - grapefruit i zioła. długo pozostaje w ustach.
