From - pint Price - 2.99 for 0.33l Taste- malt, Belgian yeast, citrus, faint caramel, faint citrus, some hops and bitter tones. Bit of alcohol tones, even with this low alco content. Apart from exploding bottle cap, nothing much to look forward to. Faint sour character accompanying in the aftertaste.

Very good, dense, reasonably stable yellowish head over hazy orange-ochre beer. Toast, spicy malts, preserved orangepeel, light-coloured and white candi sugar. Rather 'hot' aromas. Toasted malts, burning/fiery flavour and mouthfeel; again orangepeel, hoppy bitterness, candi sugar. Spiciness not linkeable to a specific spice or herb. Bananapeel. Long-lasting main flavour(s), stressing the orange. Good carbonation, chewy, well bodied. Run-of-the-mill.

Bottle at home. Hazy yellow color, huge foamy white head. Not a lit of aroma. Distant sweetish malty grainy notes. Flavor is quite bland as well. Meh not a fan, expected it better.

0.33 l can from 'Ace Drinks', best before October 2023. Almost clear, deep amber with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, a bit fruity-floral aroma of caramel, brown sugar, honey and some grains. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, minimally floral taste of caramel, nuts, honey and brown sugar, followed by a short, slightly bitter, moderately dry finish. Medium body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay!
