Zythos Bierfestival 2012, Leuven, Belgium. It pours clear copper with near white head of foam. The aroma offers up mild tartness mixing with citrus and tropical fruit notes as well as a faint apple juice sensation. The taste delivers spicy hops and then a mix of tangelo and mango fruitiness. This is smooth tasting pretty much hop forward brew and dangerously drinkable at 9%, very dangerous. It seemed like a 5% beer.

75 cl. bottle sampled @ ZBF 2012 // pale golden with a white head // smell is lightly herbal & hoppy, lightly fruity // light citrus hops, light grains, yeast (lager-like), touch fruity (mainly citrus), hint of cellar & farm // light & grainy // ok but expected too much from this hence a letdown

Very dark brown beer, small creamy beige head, stable, pretty adhesive. Aroma: mocha, caramel, very fruity, exotic fruits, passion fruit, pineapple, coffee. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: mocha, coffee in the start, pretty sour touch, then lots of bitterness with fruity notes. Aftertaste: strong black coffee, bit of alcohol, little grassy, caramel in the finish. Not bad, at least original.
