Clear amber brown colour, small frothy beige head, mostly diminishing, thin layer remains, good lacing. Aroma dominated by lactic smell, sour apples, light caramel, brown sugar. Rather thin taste is medium sweet, slightly bitter, sourish, caramelish. Medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation, aftertaste is flat sweet and sour, all signs of infection, it’s a pity.
