Draught. Arbitrary score 4/5 for Appearance, as nighttime conditions prevented correct assessment. Coffeenose, coffeesweets "beans", intense coffeearoma, but nowhere sharp. Impressive. Really like cold coffee with sugar, but in a really good way. Bitter in the background. Even dry-out effect. Feels intense, concentrated into dryness; Some beer - one to try if you can.

On tap. Pours with a slightly hazed golden hue with a persistent white head that leaves great lace. Aromas are awesomely malty and bready, great pils malt character. Clean with some floral, lightly lemony and grassy hop notes. Flavors are great, delicate bready malt profile balanced with some grassy hop character. Medium bitterness. Clean yeast wise. Crisp with lively carbonation, medium to low body and a dry finish. Well made!
