BOTTLE 33 CL. Almost clear dark ruby-brown, giant pillowy beige head. The aroma is very candyish - dark sugar, buttery toffee, minty lokum - but also hoppy - orange zest and some pine. The taste starts with zesty hops upfront, the malts are in the background. Some toasty roasty notes follow to a intense fresh zesty and piney finish (with something salty into it). Nice and clean. Very good.

33cl bottle from a friend of the brewer. Amber pour, hazy, with a white head. Smells like malt sugar, bitter hops and it has a metallic feeling. The taste is a bit oxidated, followed by some malt sugars and generic bitterness. Seems a bit stale (even though the bottle was fresh), but is quite drinkabe.

BOTTLE 33 CL. Hazy golden-amber, thick creamy head. Fruity and flowery aroma, quince, a touch of pine. Got everyhing, but is a bit muted and lacks the clarity and freshness. The taste is lightly sweet and fruity, followed by moderate bitterness that has a bit of medicinal edge to it, but not offensive. Some astringency, but only to the point that it adds some body and does not become brutal. Again, not bad but needs some good amount of polishing.

BOTTLE 33 CL. Hazy golden, ivory head. Aroma has just a touch of sweet citrus, overripe fruit, lollipop, aspirin. Taste: mostly dry, just some fruitiness, harsh aspirin or moldy bitterness, even some yeast in the finish. Light body, but not watery, a tad astringent. Not a bad light ale, but the „fruit gone rotten” aroma and the „medicinal” bitterness must be fixed.

Shared BOTTLE 33 CL. Clear amber, almost no sediment, off white head. Sweet citrus and some caramel, bit sugary. Just hint of dank. Taste: hints of orange, citrusy hops, sugary caramel. Piney bitterness with a slight harsh edge.
Got better and cleaner since the last time. Still, bit too sugary. 6-4-7-3-13=3,3
------------------
BOTTLE 33 CL. Hazy red-brown, beige head. The aroma is mostly sweet - lollipop, toffee, creme brulee - with hops supporting the malts. The taste is also, not too heavy on hops, and the malts are light too, exposing the beer’s natural acidity a bit. The finish is nice smooth moderate bitterness. Cleanly fermented, no astringency. Not bad, but hops have to be pumped up a bit. 6-4-6-3-13=3,2.
