0.33 l can from 'Beer Republic', best before December 2021. Clear, amber with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, gently herbal-resiny, moderately fruity aroma of honey, pine, orange blossom indeed and grains. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, quite herbal-resiny and gently fruity taste of honey, pine, orange blossom, light juniper and some grains, followed by a short, gently bitter, moderately dry, slightly resiny, rather herbal finish. Medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Interesting, nicely herbal beer.
