At a tasting, thanks kerenmk, clear darkish brown colouer with reddish hues, light roasty aroma with some dark bread and earthy notes, dark sour bread flavour, with some sweet malt. Bland and uninteresting.

Tap at Omama. Aroma sourish cidery. Only lightly hazy yellow colour. White head, moderate duration. Taste has moderate sweetness. Initialy even some banana. Light lagery yeastiness. But then the cider kicks in and all is gone. That being said, there is no astringency and it drinks well despite light sourness. Somewhat dryish finish. Weird cocktail :-D
