Tap @ Beer-Ma Kanda. Creamy orange pour with some white bubbles on the top. Juicy tropical nose, light acidity, bit of velvet grassiness. Tastes grassy and creamy malty at the same time. Medium bitterness, some NE feel to it - but not exactly what it is supposed to be. Grassy-hoppy, still good.

Draft. A- Weak, mild dates. A- Dark copper color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Malty, alcohol. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, bland finish. O- Not impressed. I haven't had the base beer to compare but as a huge fan of rosemary and dates, I was very intrigued with this one. Really subdued flavors and not necessarily a bad beer, it simply lacked flavors I expected to shine.
