50cl bottle at Koht pours a hazy gold with some ringing, white head. Nose is grass, lightly vegetal, straw, lemon, mild soap, a little grist. Flavor follows, mild grist and honey, cut grass, straw, some green bell pepper, lemon. Finishes lightly bitter and a touch tannic. I usually don’t like Green Bullet hops, but this was well done.

On tap at Pudel, Tallinn. Clear golden to amber with a fairly modest, white head. Strange fruity aroma, reminds me of canned peaches or some typical cake filling. Certainly desserty, a bit sweet too, but a fairly decent bitterness. Strange hop - don’t quite know what to think about it, but certainly interesting. Not my favourite from the series, but enjoyable enough. --- Beer merged from original tick of Zaļā Bise Green Bullet on 14 Aug 2016 at 15:12 - Score: 7
