Bottle: Very pale yellow colour, big creamy head, very long lasting (caused by hop-resins(?)); distinctive herbal hoppy nose; mainly bitter, only a little bit sweetish start; quite heavy bitter flavour, the hops burst in Your mouth and dominate to the very dry, hoppy , long lasting aftertaste; light bodied, quite well rounded: A goodie !
