Bottle. Color: Lightly reddish murky brown, very thin beige head. Aroma: Dark dried fruit, malty, caramel. Taste: Caramel, malty, sweetish, dark dried fruit, raisins, cherry, subtle chocolate, boozy hints. Medium body, just below average carbonation. Complex. Very light sourness. Over moderate sweet, light bitterness.
Bottle @ home. A gusher. Unusually and interesting beer. Aroma is actually like roses with wood and a spicy touch. Same goes for flavor, roses, floral, spicy, oak, mild acidity and some funk. Easy drinkable, refreshing and sure interesting.

opalescent golden colour, large, dense ivory-like off-white head; aroma of orange peel oils, dried banana and honeycomb toffee, taste is quite the same with some hoppy-ness and linden honey - not bad at all, though not really a typical APA, in my view
gave a cheers!

Drunk at Enoteca Piccola in Hsinchu. Amber hazy, mildly spicy herbal flavor, full and lightly sweet mouthfeel. Nice complexity, well balanced, excellent!
