0.33 l bottle from 'Craftbeershop.com', 6.8% abv, best before July 2026. Hazy, deep orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, quite yeasty-spicy aroma of banana, clove, honey and light pear. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, rather yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity taste of lots of caramel, honey, banana, clove, some cinnamon and a touch of pear, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Pleasant beer, although quite sweet and rather unusual for the style.

Bottle picked up from Craftbier and consumed at home sat on the balcony watching Germany v Denmark Euro Championships, (Germany won 2-0) Saturday 29th June 2024. Pours black with not much of a head, cocoa and bitter chocolate. roasted malts, a touch of sweet liquorice but not at all sweet, bitterness runs through. Good, and I like it for it's simplicity, but not great.
