(bottle) Slightly unclear, amber colour with a shine of copper and a small and slightly tanned foamy head. Toasty malty aroma with notes of caramel, accompanied by a shy berry-fruity touch and traces of sweaty and metallic hops. Moderately sweet and bitter flavour, light bodied with a spritzy carbonation. Toasty malt-character with caramel and a restrained fruitiness; dry-ish caramelly and hop bitter finish. I do not like the aroma while the rest is pretty decent. 30.IX.10
