21/9/2018. Bottle from Plakafe near SM Baguio and thanks to Cecille for bringing this to UK. Huge gusher on opening. Pours amber red with a large short lasting frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, flowers, malt, rice and a little vinegar. Moderate sweetness, light bitterness and slight sour edge. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Least favourite of the 4 that I got from this brewery, and ironically the only one that hadn't leaked in transit.

Bottle - Flower petal, yeast and candy like notes. Weird dark purple brown with a rich light pink head. Bitter and herbal with some candy sweetness and a long bitter finish. I see where they are going, but they just don’t execute well enough.
