I am not reviewing this as a beer for drinking. It is a bit sweet for my palate. However, I have to say that as a marinade for pork this is probably the best I have ever found. I have used this to marinade both pork loin and pork chops with a little salt, pepper, rosemary, sage, thyme and parsley, this beer really enhances and goes with the meat and makes for some of the most tender and delicious pork I have ever eaten.

So as a cooking beer, especially for pork, this is a 10!

330ml bottle. Cloudy, amber-ish, red colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, fruity and herbal aroma, notes of peppermint, a touch of red berries, strawberry. Taste is sweet-ish, malty, slightly fruity and herbal, oscillating notes of peppermint and strawberry, changing predominance of either flavour, homogeneous interaction at times. Watery texture, smooth, soft, simultaneously minimally dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Harmonious composition, well controlled sweetness, refreshing - surprisingly good.

Bottle. Clear dark gold with a small and rather short-lived white head. Aroma and taste of your standard non-alcoholic beer, grains, malts and artificial sweetness. Low and stale bitterness. Medium to strong carbonation. This is most certainly not a labour of love.

Taste is sweet-ish, malty, minimally doughy yeasty, notes of honey, dark honey, floral overtones, bitter hoppy counterpart. Minimally creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, fine and soft to flat carbonation. Rather simple, monotonous - not overly impressive.
