zapach lekki, słodowy z nutami ziołowymi. kolor lekko ciemniejszego złota, przejrzysty, klarowny. piana gęsta, długo się utrzymuje, choć nie jest zbyt obfita. w smaku dość wytrawny, słodowy, z bardzo wyraźną goryczką. goryczka jest silna, ziołowa, czysta, dość długo się utrzymuje. wyraźny metaliczny posmak i dość wysoka kwaśność. trochę przypomina mocniejsze lagery. nasycenie dość niskie

w zapachu słody, zioła, lekkie mleko i zielone jabłko. kolor złoty, przejrzysty, piana średnio obfita, ale dość ładna. wytrawne, lekko słodowe ze słodkawym finiszem, na pierwszy plan wybija się wyraźna, czysta, ziołowa goryczka. lekki metaliczny posmak od chmielu. podczas picia lekko czuć ogonkiem z jabłka. zadziwiająco konkretne jak na piwo o tak niskim ekstrakcie. nasycenie dość niskie.

Bottle sample at a tasting in Yuvalim. Thanks kerenmk. Clear pale golden with a white head. Aroma of over-cooked cereals, paper and vegetables. Sweetish flavor with cereals, a bit of paper and a slightly bitterish finish. Light-bodied. The light bitterness makes it almost drinkable. Could be worse.

Bottle at that tiny expensive beer store in the Prague Old Town. Weell... Purple/red body with a pink head. Smells kinda nice, raspberries backed by a sweet malty background. The taste, however, is much leaner, with a more or less generic hoppy bitterness being the focal point, the perfumey raspberry notes rounding it up around the edges, playing second fiddle. A surprising amount of people actually liked it. And yeah, it’s kinda drinkable, but it’s definitely not my type of (fruit) beer.
