Shared 11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with a white head. Aroma and taste of light malt, floral elements, grass, hints of apple juice and white wine. maybe some pear? Musty. Finish is warming, sweet and malty. It’s really weird. Can’t say I’ve had anything quite like this. And in this case, that’s not a good thing.

Bottle shared at the 2015 edition of the chriso Pre-GBBF tasting - London. Cheers! Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Papery aroma, with hints of cereal. Light sweet flavour, with dry and crispy cereal flakes. Light bodied with average carbonation. Drying to close, with more papery aspect. Meh, mediocre stuff.

0.33 l bottle at Marko’s place, best before May 2017, thanks for sharing Adam! Clear, golden yellow with a white head. Sweetish-malty aroma of sweet malts and some corn. Sweetish-malty taste of sweet malts, some caramel, corn and sweet booze, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately boozy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Not good.

Can at omhper’s. Thanks Andreas. Clear golden liquid with small to medium white head. Aroma of pears, acetaldehyde, green apples, grain, booze and corn. Taste is light sweet and light bitter with notes of booze, pears and grain. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Not extremely offensive, but not good.

16oz can pours a clear gold with some sticky, white head. Nose is strong, even from a distance but not that inviting. Some green apple, booze, heavy ripe corn, metal, but a lot of green apple Jolly Rancher. Flavor is actually better, but not much, still plenty of candy and green apple, some thin honey, fake lemon, a little grist. Full, sticky finish. Real bad.
