Bottled 500ml. -Courtesy of luttonm, shared with him and Marko. Yellow coloured, minimal airy white head, subdued rubber in the nose. Hmmm...tastes like mineral water flavoured with watermelon. Also light traces of malt and that’s it.

Another huge thanks to Matt!Golden, small whtie head. Stinky unmalted wheat aroma, grain, mild plastic maltiness and... erm... vagina? Ah. Anyway, it doesn’t exactly excel in terms of aroma. Light sweetish malty taste, technically clean taste-wise, just with.... something kinda unripe that bothers. Didn’t expect it to be better.
