The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts quite hoppy, modest sweet. Finish is more spicy, well balanced, still sweet. A good one!

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts hoppy and dry, modest sourish. Becomes more and more metallically. Finish is too dry. Average!
