Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of hops, grass, and grapefruit lending it a slight acidity. The flavor is sweet malty with a slight acidic edge on which notes of grass and grapefruit appear, leading to a very sry and bitter finish, where the acidic edge still lingers. The body is thin. Thanks to fonefan and Brugmansia for sharing.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a slightly hazy and suprisingly pale golden. Not that it is yellowis, I just expected a darker color. There’s a thin layer of off-white bubbles on top. Citrusy hops, some malt and a little dusty, sour, citric aroma in the background. Nice, citrusy and bitter flavor, sure fruity, but there’s also some indications of the beer going bad, with dusty, citric flavors. Medium to full body. Still a quite decent beer, but guess it was on it’s way down. (080822)

Bottle, shared by fonefan. Pours a hazy copper body with just some off-white bubbles for a head. The aroma has some citric, dusty and sour notes, but at least they are not masking all of the caramel. The flavor has a blend of citrus and malt, with some hoppy bitterness, but just a tiny one. Medium body. Citrus-fruity and bitter finish, quite weak. What can I say, not very good, not completely off, but it seems it’s on it’s way. (080822)
