Not very recommendable this one….
Hazed golden color with a fine white head. Ok lacing. Mild intensity in the aroma. Hmm some yeast. Medium body and an ok carbonation. A bit acidity in this one, should maybe not be there. Caramel malty, yeast and some fruity notes.

My goodness…..
Clear golden color with a fine white head. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium light body and a soft carbonation. Malty and grassy flavor. Tad sweet and a mild bitterness. Oh no…

At Jim/John is back tasting. Dark brown with off white head. Sour roasted grains. Probably infected. Distand coffee and chocolate but it’s really digging behind the vinegar. Quite sour, minerallike and light bitter. Under medium body. Low carbonation.
