Way too fizzy on opening. Has a med brown colour. Aroma is tart, mostly. Mostly tart, yeasty, fizzy...no real malts coming out here. Just too many qc problems.

Light tan colour. Has a yeasty-footy aroma. Thin body with too much tartness. Light spiciness. Nothing really comes together here, even when you look past the tartness.

Amber with some chill haze. Thin head. The aroma is slightly fruity. The taste has only mil bitterness and is fairly fruity (pear, and other vague orchard fruits). Finishes a bit sweet, more of an amber ale.

Straw colour. Earthy, slightly mushroomy continental hop character. Sweetish on the palate with some doughy malts. I’ve had a few macrobrews in Eastern Europe with this similar character.

(Bottle 34 cl) Pours a clear, deep golden with a small, white head. Lightly tart aroma and some floral accents. Medium body with a good malt feel and a distinct touch of aroma hops before a short, dry finish. The beer has an underlying tartness that is acceptable as of now, but I doubt it will be by expiry date July 08. However you do get the feeling of better raw materials in this one. 170508
