Flaska på Barbra, ett ställe i Beit Jala, söder om Jerusalem med mäktig utsikt. Klassisk pilsner som är ren och kanske lite karaktärslös, aningen honung jämte ljust bröd och säd. Ok.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Tom L’s place. Clear amber color. Aroma of malt, caramel, lots of clove, some cinnamon. Sweet flavor, caramelly, with winter spices and a minerally touch. Medium-bodied. Clean and well-made, but too sweet and spicy for my liking.

Bottle, big bubbly fluffy head, hazy intense yellow color, rubbery slightly spicy yeasty aroma with some apple notes, apple, cimamon fruity aroma, with a citrusy sourness and a slightly coarse herbal bitterness, very strong and bit unpleasant carbonation. Infected but still fair and drinkable.

Bottle at Beerfest at Sharonim mall in Hod HaSharon. Hazy golden. Sourish funky aroma, fruity, citric, yeast, a bit of vinegar, light plastic hint Flavor is rather dry, mildly sourish, funky, fruity, with citrus and apples, yeast, light vinegar hint, some sweetish graininess, and a light bitterish touch. Quite light-bodied, way over-carbonated (makes it a lot harder to drink). Infected, but could be worse.
