Hazy golden, white head. The regular bready and clean lactic Berliner character is augmented by a subtle but plain to see slightly caramelized quince note that adds that extra bit of complexity without turning it into another fruit juice. Just the right pH for a normal person, no heart burn acidity. Very good.

Black like the night, huge dark brown head that is super firm. Bitter & sweet coffee aroma, wow, overwhelming. The flavor is starting sweet & nutty, tiny bit of soy / umami, very well balanced especially considering the 10.5%. Really nice.

330ml bottle from a trade (cheers Neil). Pours murky opaque golden, thick creamy white head, idyllic NEIPA appearance. Aroma of juicy citrus and tropical fruits, grapefruit, mango. Taste is tropical, mango, then very citrusy, big orange/grapefruity pithy bitterness. Medium bodied. Decent DIPA, surprised how strong the bitterness was.

RBESG 19 Grand Tasting. Extremely dark brown body with an off white head. Pistachio icecream in the aroma, sweet, with coconut... actually, mostly coconut. Taste-wise this is smooth, smooth but lean Raffaello. Romanians make some great stuff these days!
