Herber Antrunk mit milden aber vielschichtigen Hopfenaromen. Süffig, der Hopfen lugt nun vorsichtig hervor, das Bier wird süßlich. Die Aromen wechseln sich nun ab, die Herbe sticht mit dem angenehm gesetzten Hopfen am meisten hervor. Im Nachgeschmack nur noch hopfig. 11/10/10/11/9/11

Hopfiger Antrunk, mild, in Teilen wässrig. Weiterhin wässrig, das Bier besitzt keine großen Stärken. Etwas trocken grasig in die muffige Richtung. Naja... 11/6/7/7/7/7

Strong vinous and oaky aroma, notes of dark dried fruits and caramel. Sweet flavour but not extreme, notes of dark dried fruits and oak again, hoppy bitterness in the finish.
