Bottle. I know it’s just my opinion, but I think this beer is over rated. It starts off good. Has a really pleasant aroma, almost of a floral nature. Looks ok. Has a nice head that goes away rather quickly. The taste, ok this is where it goes down hill. It is way too sour, bitter and dry for my taste. I can see this being a wine lovers beer. Recommended for those who like dry beer.

Barwa bursztynowa, lekko opalizująca. Piana biała, dość niska i raczej nie trwała, zdobienia też raczej delikatne.
Aromat uwodzicielsko pyszny, jest umiarkowanie dziki, "naturalny", minimalnie owocowy. Aromat zachęca do spróbowania.
Smak lekko słodki z goryczkową kontrą. Goryczka chmielowa ma charakter pestkowy.
Wysycenie wysokie. Ciało średnie. Tekstura gładka i miękka. Posmak długi słodko wytrawny z dzikim charakterem.

Bottled, 6.2% ABV. Pours hazy orangeish colour with long lasting white head. It has several characteristics woven together in its aroma and taste: hops, floral and citrusy notes, slight cinnamon and sweet alcohol, all of them well combined. Medium bodied yet easily drinakble, lively carbonated and refreshing. Leaves dry, bitter finish on the palate. Very nice.

09/01/2023 Aromat dosyć słaby trochę kwaskowaty, wytrawny, ogólnie nic specjalnego. Piana biała obfita, mętne troszkę, pomarańczowe w kolorze. W smaku troszkę przyprawowe, raczej wytrawne, troszkę kwaskowate, czuc tez chmiel. Nagazowanie duże, dość lekkie, gładkie, finisz kwaskowaty. Ogólnie piwo poprawne, ale raczej nie moja bajka.

This beer should have its own category.
more of a saison than a heavy trappist ale. lots of corriander, and hops, and its nice and dry in the finish. very nice.
