0.33l bottle. Aroma of grapefruit, overripe passion fruit and yeast with dank note. Pours dirty yellow color with large frothy white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts overripe citrusy, grassy and floral, following is bready, honeyish and medicinal, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium body, slick texture and soft carbonation in palate. Oxidized Joseph…

Bottled from Pomalo Zagreb. Slightly hazy full darker, slightly coppery amber body, not much of the off-white head. Sweetish aroma, mostly caramelly, lightly floral, vague yeasty and vegetal touches, lightly herbal and minerally. Surprisingly floral-hoppy dry, lightly minerally taste, somewhat bready, caramelly taste, that's a fair bit dried out, honeyish, thankfully light yeasty, lightly phenolic touches from refermentation, vaguely vegetal, prickly bite in the finish, though it felt almost flat otherwise. I mean... this isn't clean, the bottle conditioning did it no favors, would be interesting to try it on tap - if the vegetal notes are DMS or refermentation byproducts, but it shows some promise.

Unclear golden, small off-white head. Grassy, leaves, lemon, biscuit and soap aroma. Lightly citrusy and herbal flavour. Smooth but light body and too thin.
