Draught @ Kapellerput, Heeze. Hazy yellow color, medium to full sized white head. Aroma is quite faint, can’t really get anything clearly. Taste has a light sweet touch and a slight fruity hint but it’s distant and certainly not profound enough to make this a fruitbeer imo. No real flaws but not really interesting.

Säuerlich malziger Antrunk mit angenehmen Kirschnoten. Ein wenig säuerlicher werdend, gleichzeitig süßlich. Moderat hopfig, süffig. Gut. 11/12/11/10/8/11
