Piwo ciekawe i napewno nietypowe. Wyglad to jak cydr bez pianki ze sporym nagazowaniem i jakby szampanskimi babelkami. Klarowna barwa i jaskrawo zolta. W zapachu dziki bez w smaku dziki bez, cytryny i kwasne pomarancze, w zapachu sporo wrazen kwiatowych, wrzosy i lawenda. Ogolny odbior to lekkie piwo gorzko kwaskowe. Ale ten bez jest wszechobecny. Fajne choc nie powalajace piwo jak dla mnie

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Daniel. Clear gold - amber beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light, and semi dry, modest carbonation. Thin malts, mildly sweet. Mellow peaty whiskey, some band aids but not to the intensity where is starts to burn. Modest dried fruits. Trace of sweeter floralness. Light finish. Not bad for a peat whiskey BA beer.

Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Dan the Man. Pours clear gold with a bubbly white head. Nice intense peat aroma, some citrus, pale bread. Medium sweet flavour with more robust peat, dry smoke, cured ham, light bready notes, mellow bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Somewhat oily. Finishes with moderate warmth, more heavy peat, light orange peel, faint caramel. Great peat beast.

Bottle thanks to Dirty D. It pours clear rich amber with a small white head. The aroma is rich, sweet, medicinal, filthy smoked peat, iodine, varnish, TCP, honeyed grain and cake. The taste is sweet, sticky, oily, honey, medicinal vibe throughout, warming alcohol, peated whisky vibe, honey cake and a touch of spice. Medium body and flat. Nice aroma, but a touch flat. Not bad.
