0.33 l bottle from the taproom. Pours copper with thin, immediately vanishing head. Nose is dry (is that even possible?) malty, and I sense some rye in there too. Taste follows the aroma with a very slight, barely noticable hoppy touch. Short, bitterish finish, light body, average carbonation. No big deal, but one without major flaws.

0.33 l bottle @ home. Pours hazy orange with no head. Nose is spicy fruity and grainy. In taste it has the same notes, pretty well balanced, but it has so light of a body that it almost ruins it. Pretty weak and water, with short sweetish finish. If it wasnt for the too light body it could’ve turned out much better.

On tap @ Zsiraf. Egy fel fokkal jobb mint a cseresznye, de meg mindig aranytalanul edes.

Tap @ Zsiraf. Way too sweet fruity brew, with a hint of tart character. Meh.

Bottle at home, thanks to Petra for this. Pours deep golden with thick head. Nose is yeasty with some fruity and floral aromas to it. In taste the same notes appear with just a hint of bitterness, but with it being present in the finish too. Light bodied with average carbo, easy to drink.

Bottle at home. Deep, somewhat hazy golden with persistent, off-white head. Nose is a mix of resinous and fruity hoppy notes, quite pleasant. In taste however it resembles a homebrew: it shows the obligatory hops, but in a messy, unsophisticated way. Light bodied (ofc) eith average carbo, goes down easy.

Bottle at home, thanks to Petra. Nose is typical First-IPA-like, just like their regular ipa, perhaps somewhat stronger. In taste it's quite messy, slightly metallic, somewhat hoppy bitter and the booze surprisingly stands out. Closes with citrusy bitterness, has light body and average carbo. Not quite there yet.

Canned 330ml. -from Beerselection Budapest. Black coloured, small brownish head that went away fast, coconut and light chocolate in the nose. Oily coconut and chocolate taste with notes of alcohol and some acidity in the finish. Expected more.
