Can on 8th January 2026 from the BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Pours slightly hazy amber with decaying, yellow tinged foam and scant lacing. Richly hoppy aroma with grassiness, deep malts and earthy pungencies. Bitter grasses and citrus zests dominate the liquid pass, to be joined by sweet fruits in a harmonious finish. Full bodied with a smooth yet engaging mouthfeel. Absolutely exquisite.
