Virtually no head, but some white little bubbles, fed by lively carbonated hazy lemon-yellow beer. Very faint (sweet) malts’ nose, rather typical for bwabza’s (nablabs), rather than tafelbier. Summergrain. Neutral with a nearly bitterish (root)spiciness; near all the sweetness gone in the taste; herbal. Feels overcarbonated, watery and thinnish. For a tafelbier, or certainly a nablab, fairly decent. Pushing ’neutral’ to a virtue. Not even reckoning that the designation categories I, II, III and S are illegal to be used still, somebody ought to explain me how a 3.5 % ABV beer could be Cat. S?!

Bottle at home in London. Pours an almost clear, ruby-brown with a creamy, light tan head. Toasted sugar aroma, like turbinado, with hints of berries and other fruits. Medium sweet flavor, kind of messy. Some fruits, hints of brown sugar and leather, some toast. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Sweet finish, slightly warming, more toasted sugar, slimy syrup, mild dirt. There’s an odd, biting aspect to the carbonation. Pretty average stuff.

bottle@Bahnhove: hazy golden with a decent white head, lots of spices everywhere, highly carbonated, some yeast, pale malts, handful of bitter hops, touch of fruits, bit too thin & way too over-carbonated for my own personal preferences

33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 28.06.2012
Rather weird and stale aroma with spices and something I cannot recognize. Flavour is also a bit weird and stale with fruitiness and hints of spices. Dry palate. Not very nice.

Aroma has lots of sweet, bready malt like german dark lagers. Some sugar and caramel too. Flavour is also sweet with some sugar, caramel and toffee. Hints of solvent also. Too sweet for me.
