(bottle) Slightly cloudy, golden colour with a blond medium-sized foamy head. Yeasty, slightly sweet malty and minimal bready aroma with restrained fruity notes, a touch of vegetables and alcohol. Bitter-sweet flavour with a whiff of acidity, medium to full bodied with a modest carbonation. Pale malt-character, slightly yeasty, shy fruity, but strong spicy taste with notes of pepper and early arriving alcohol; almost dry, bitter and slightly sourish finish with present alcoholic and spicy notes. Not really convincing. 17.I.10

Hazy deep blond color. Medium aroma of hazelnuts and chemicals, chemical fabrics. The mild sweet malt flavor is covered by a nasty chemicals presence. Bad.
