SAMPLE 50 ml at tasting. Tropical fruit and soda-water hop profile. A bit of yeasty muddiness. A hint of burnt paper. Mediocre at best.

SAMPLE 50 ml at a tasting. Chocolate and sweetened coffee, light fecal notes. Pungent hoppy bitterness and hints of charcoal. OK.

330 ml bottle. Light unclear orange color with off white head. Aroma is old smelly socks in the beginning! Then some better hoppy aromas, light grass and pine, some malty notes. Sweet and light bitter taste like aroma. Light to medium oily body with soft carbonation.

Stark karbonisiert. Dumpfer hopfiger Beginn mit angenehmer klarer Bitterkeit. Erkennbare Malznoten, die Herbe bleibt dabei eher mild. 9/10/10/10/9/9

22-MAY-2016. Pretty solid malts, tropical fruit and... dirty socks again (like their other beers). Hints of ashes in the aftertaste. OK, but certainly off. 6-4-6-3-11=3,0/5.
24-FEB-2016. BOTTLE 33 CL (Lot 003, BB 5-AUG-2016). Hazy amber with a big sediment, off-white head. Muted sugary and caramel aroma, notes of green figs, no hops at all. The taste is even worse, restrained malts, harsh and astringent, green fruit and glue, harsh phenolic bitterness. This needs a lot of work. 3-4-4-3-7=2,1/5.

Bottle at Vitamin B - Sofia, Bulgaria. Pours deep brown with a frothy beige head. Mellow roasted malts in the nose, some dry cocoa, scorched earth. Light-medium sweet flavour with burnt toast, baking cocoa, roast, dried dark fruits. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Lightly sweet finish, some baking cocoa, roast, burnt marshmallows. Pretty tasty, although a bit restrained.

Bottle shared at Vitamin B - Sofia, Bulgaria. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a creamy-frothy white head. A bit muted on the nose, some pine needles and crackery pale malts. Light-medium sweet flavor with yet more pine needles, pale grains, frackers, lemon rind. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. More of the same on the finish. Perhaps not at its freshest? Otherwise, could do with some tweaking. Just so so.
