Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy copper pour, two finger frothy off-white head, long lasting, excellent retention. Broken lacing on the glass. Not so great on the nose, some sour and acidic notes, grass and ripe fruits in the background. Light body, medium carbonation, lively. Average mouthfeel and texture, lightweight, fizzy, refreshing. Bittersweet taste with sour notes in the background. Aroma of malt, grains, grass. Earthy, minerals, acidic. Yeasty notes, light fruitiness in the background. Medium lasting finish, lingering bitterness, slightly dry. All over the place, not bad but not that fresh either.

Bottle from Victa. Hazy dark yellow-orange body, lasting, thick off-white head - nice looking! Caramel, flowery, creamy and lightly herbal notes in the aroma, fairly dry. Lean taste, soft, sweetish, flowery, quite a bit papery though. Not fresh tasting. I can see this being a good beer fresher, sadly, the shelves didn't serve it well.

Update: Another bottle, but taken from the darker part of the bloody shelf at Victa... much more bearable. Sweetish, flowery, lightly vegetal aroma, okay. Cleaner taste, lightly flowery, dry, light hay, mildly vegetal, not bad. Cleaner, not a wow. Still want to try it fresh on tap. Bottled from Victa. Hazy paaale golden body, thick white head. Lightly vegetal, sweetish, sickly, papery, but also flowery aroma. Lean taste, smooth, light prickly carbonation, nice flowery and lightly citric hoppy notes, lightly sweetish, yeasty but clean maltiness. Some cardboard pops up as it warms. I'm kinda compensating the bad aroma score-wise because I don't feel it deserves that low a rating - it's likely shelf storage that did this. Will hopefully rerate fresher soon enough - shows promise! 4/3/6/3/14
