330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, orangey, deep golden colour with huge, thick, firm, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Fruity malty and fruity hoppy aroma has a premonition of sweetness, floral overtones, hints of peach, a touch of blossom honey (Blütenhonig), some peppery yeasty spiciness. Taste is minimally bready malty, slightly fruity, spicy yeasty with a more than decent bitter hop component, hints of peach and mirabelle; slighly biting bitter hoppy and peppery spicy finish with additional herbal hoppy touch, cautious hints of alcohol. Accurately brewed triple with rather high, but literally complementary, very well matching bitter hop dosis; the Triple character is kept alive and is augmented with a real hop kick, without disturbing nor surpressing the multifaceted, gentle, accompanying flavours. This is a "bantam" masterpiece.
