Fles gekregen van Inoven, geprobeerd met Roelzie. Het is een troebel oranje geel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van mout en gist. De smaak is moutig, zacht zoet en kruidig.

Bottle from Stacks.
A: clear dark golden, stable, foamy, off-white head.
A: overripe plum & apricot, old bread, clove, vague plastic.
T: sweetish ripe apple & plum, bitter herbs, yeast, clove-like phenols.
F: herbal hops, bit harshly bitter of phenols, plastic and warming vodka-like alcohol.
P: medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation.
'Stereotripical' as I like to call it, and not even technically flawless.

Bottle pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is nice light grain some spice and floral notes. Taste is more of the nice light grain malts some spice and a nice floral kick.
