From a 330ml bottle on 17/11/2010. Has a distinct floral, bready, fruity (particularly passionfruit) aroma. Has an unbelievable amount of flavour for a pilsener, dominated by citrus fruits, more passionfruit, honey and spices. Finishes with a good dash of bitterness. Exceptionally good.

Bottle. Burnt orange with a medium-sized off-white head. Aroma of oranges, earth, orchard flowers. Taste has peppery spices upfront and throughout, with candi sugar, kumquats and light dough. The malts lack much depth. Spicy bitterness at the end with white pepper, coriander. Also has some tropical fruits. Mouthful of spices lasts a while. Quite reminiscent of Chouffe Houblon. Excellent.
