On draft at Yokohama GJBF. Deep amber color. Herbally and interesting yeast and aroma hops, but not very bitter. Apples, oranges, cherries in mouth. Sweetish malty finish. Not bad.

(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy, pale yellow with a bubbly, pop-like head that dissipates in no time. Intense, artificial banana aroma. Light body, very heavily carbonated and then also intense, chemical and sugary banana flavours. No bitterness. Quite horrible. The label mentions something called "Milkbase" - whatever that’s supposed to mean. 160907

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours an almost clear reddish with a lively and bubbly, pink head. Sweetish berry like aroma. Light in body, no real malt feel, sweetish berry notes although you cannot really recognize cherry to be the particular one. Sweet - almost stickingly sweet - finish. More like a fruit pop really. 160907

6.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Slightly hazy gold-yellow with a greenish shine; good off-white head. Greenery, greenmalt, oppressive wet malts nose. Dry, sweet malt in the taste, wet wheat. Also some extra sweetness from the present alcohol. Very alcoholic MF, certainly for a beer that is after all not that strong. Not very distinctive, neither very attenuated - for a tripel. Needs desperately some hops.
