Pale yellow. Orangey aroma. Sweet and pleasantly fruity with vital elastic very soft mouthfeel. A flowery bitterness kicks in in the finish which gives a pleasant and verywell balanced summer ale.

Blond color. Nice aroma: hop, light honey, tomato, citrus fruits. Really interesting flavor, herbal, grassy, really bitter, leading to a long final a lot aromatic. Wonderful in the bottle, a must try in the cask. The best beer I tasted at Lausanne Beer Festival!

Bottled. Dark black, no head. Aroma of dark chocolate. Roasty and very malty with notes of licorice that lingers on into the grassy finish. Another good beer from this brewery. --- Beer merged from original tick of Old Engine Oil (Bottle) on 30 Jun 2021 at 09:34

This is very porter-like. Dark brown appearance with a roasty aroma. It has a very "mocha-chino" type flavor to it. The body is a bit thin and the finish is watery, but this is a decent beer. Worth a try, esp. if you like porters.

Black with beige head. Really roasty. Surprising sweet creaminess. Am I imagining the wheat malt flavour? Medium body with a short blast of salt and a lingering licorice flavour. Pleasant dry bitter finish. Yummy!!

Golden colour, firm head, good lacework.. Wonderful fruity aroma. Refreshing, fruity bitterness. Long hoppy finish. Why can’t all lagers be like this!?
