Bottle. Slightly muddy dark red/brown featuring an ok beige head. Aroma of strawberries and hints of mints. Taste of strawberries and mild mints with some grains and malts underneath. Just slightly sweet. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Very balanced and refreshing. Astonishing how much this combonation of flavours actually works. Very nice.

Bottle. Clear dark gold with a tiny and very short-lived white head. Aroma of roses, honey and malts. Taste of roses, grains, roses, malts, roses and honey. Low bitterness. Low carbonation bordering on „wait a minute there is something deeply wrong with this one“. Ok. Roses are red, hops are green, they don’t really go that well together if you know what I am saying.
