Very good dense & fine-bubbled, yellowish head, stable, over hazy yellow-orange beer, well-carbonated. Aromatic, 'hot', estery nose, yeast features, but also garden herbs. Quite bitter, EU hops rather than New World, with a faint, not really sweet pale malts backing, though the sweetness increases gradually, faintly as cornflakes. In the end, good balance. Esters remain subdued in the mouth, but for a faint resurgence warming up. Feels quite carbonated actually, near fizzy. Bit slick, medium bodied. Apart from a shor initial bitterness, linked to the estery nose - also rather volatile - this is essentialy a very common easy drinking beer, with no special features.
