At Bruxellensis 2008, Brussels, Belgium
Clear amber body with a white head. Aroma of hops and a bit caramel. Lightly bitter, lightly sweet flavour. Nice, but not great. Good balance, but lacks some complexity.

(bottle) Hazy, light amber colour with an off-white foamy head. Sweet, slightly yeasty and fruity (green banana) wheat-malty aroma with notes of barley and woody accents. Light-sweet and sourish tart flavour, light bodied but definitely not tasteless, lively carbonated, refreshing mouthfeel. Moderately wheaty and yeasty fruity taste with a slim fruity and slightly tart finish with a woody/corky touch. Thirst-quenching light brew (25.05.08).

bottle. Amber colour, cloudy, large head. Malty and fruity with hints of apples, slightly hoppy as well. Has its very own character, every sip is highly interesting and enjoyable. Lovely beer, wish I had more of it.

On tap at Berliner Bierfestival. Clear, golden pour with an off-white head. Cellar, caramel and some fruity, pear I think, in the aroma. The flavor had caramel, some cellar, and a hint of pear. Medium body. A quite nice and fruity beer. (070803)

Sample from bottle. 1 year after BBD. Pours unfiltered orange/amber. Aroma is cellar and mouldy. Flat flavour, but better than the aroma. Not good.

(swing top bottle) Clear, amber colour with a fluffy, slowly lacing, off-white foam. Moderately sweet toast-malty aroma with subtle caramel and pronounced fruity notes of peach and pear. Sweet flavour, medium to light body, smooth carbonation. Toast-malty and fruity taste with soft, but spicy, slightly “corky” phenols; sweet, almost lingering, malt-accented, fruity finish with a whiff of hops. A well-balanced, quaffable brew.

Bügelverschlußflasche: Pale golden, hazy, medium sized fluffy head; quite distinctive sweet-malty and a bit yeasty (fruity) nose; soft, sweetish flavour; delicate sweetish-fruity, almost a bit alcoholic finish. Not bad, but not a brew the world was waiting for...............
