Bottle. Hazy pale orange colour. Lush rocky white head. Perfect retention. Spicy nose. Light coriander, subtle malts, perfume, flowers. Very pleasant. Light body. Almost watery. The taste is not as good as the aroma. Slight spiciness. Floral notes. Minimally salty. That is it.

Bottle. Amber ale with moderate frothy off-white head. Malty nectary aroma. Hints of yeast, citrus and tropical fruit. Medium body. Oily to creamy texture. Plenty of malts and big hops form the flavour. Really imperial-like. Grassy. No fruitiness. No freshness.

Bottle. Deep ruby to brown colour, well-seen yeast sediment. Small ivory head. Stays as a thin layer. Aroma: dried fruit, esters, dark malts. Full body. Soft carbonation. The taste is mighty.
