Bottle, thanks to Sebastian (DerDoppelbock) for trading!
Clear, amber body. Off-white frothy head. Earthy, slightly hoppy aroma, not very intense. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet flavour: steady hoppiness combined with some light malts. The hops are fastly increasing after some seconds and are staying quite long. Quite nice.
