Bottle: Deep golden to copper coloured, smaller and quite slowly collapsing off-white head, mild to moderate sweetish-bitter toasty-malty nose with traces of vegetables; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, surely medium-bodied; lingering sweetish-bitter toasty and grainy finish. No reason to get excited…

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear, pale yellow with a rich, white head. Aroma of nothing much, perhaps a hint of metal. Medium body, a lightly sweet but clean maltiness and grassy hops, light sulphur. Ends hoppy but not bitter. Quite good apart from the lacking aroma. 270820

Bottle 50 cl. Pours golden, initially clear, a little hazy later, with a huge and lacing white head with excellent retention - shaving foam style. Lovely piney aroma. Medium body, fairly dry maltiness where the hops are allowed to shine. Decent finishing bitterness. This is how a German IPA should be like, and not the caramel sauce that seems to be the norm. 230820

Bleek goud met dun schuim. Zoete mout, graanachtig, zacht deeg, licht netelig en bitter gehopt. “Clean” en lekker.
