Bottle. A clear, straw colored beer with a decent white head. A bit weak on the nose, with peppery, resiny hops dominating. Pale malts and grass too. A bit too heavy on co2 I think, medium body and quite dry. The flavor has grassy, resiny hops and pale malts, with a good bitterness taking you to the finish. A decent one, but far from outstanding. 091008

Bottle. A clear, slighlty pale golden beer settling with a fine, white two-finger head. Head diminishes rather quickly though. A faint butterscotchy note blends with pale malts and fruity, grassy hops in the aroma. Soft, quite dry, medium body with grains, grass and hay. Some buttery notes too, and a little bitterness. Quite sweet, buttery finish where the carbonation and bitterness can’t combat the sweetness. Definately not a world class beer, but sure drinkable. Don’t think I would cope with it as an all-nighter though. 091008
