500ml can. Quasi black colour with huge, creamy, slowly diminishing, moderately lacing, beige head. Roasty, minimally grainy and bready, dark malty aroma, hints of coffee, coffee surrogate, a touch of pumpernickel. Taste is roasty, minimally bready and smoky, ashy, dark malty, slightly bitter hoppy, notes of burnt coffee, a touch of pumpernickel, burnt caramel, iron, rust, smoked ham.
Watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously slightly dry palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation.
Balanced, fairly meaty - very nice.

440ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, dark golden colour with average to huge, thick, dense, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Fruity, mildly grassy and resinous, hoppy aroma, oaty, wheaty and pale malty background, amalgamated, unspecific, pulpy, "yellow and green" fruity notes inside a spectrum between melon and kiwi fruit, a touch of lemon, orange, grapefruit, hemp, minimally herbal-grassy overtones. Taste is in an equal (homogeneous, amalgamated, unspecific) mode fruity on a creamy, oaty and wheaty basis with low residual sweetness, a minimally alcoholic touch, some lighter citrusy aspects, lemon, lemon balm on top; lingering, less fruity, slightly bitter hoppy finish.
Creamy texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation.
Well crafted, very homogeneous, almost monotonous; but if so, monotonous on a very high, pre climax level and with quite some evolving, "marginal" but not negligible subtleties - banger!

440ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, dense, frothy to creamy, slowly diminishing, moderately lasting, white head. Concentrated, nevertheless somewhat subdued, citrusy fruity and minimally perfumed, hoppy aroma, raw, wheaty malty background, hints of lemon, a touch of yuzu, limoncello, whiffs of lime; developes way more pervasive lemon fragrance after a while, some "heavier", more durable, dank, resinous aspects as well, whiffs of mint. Taste is concentrated, bitter, citrusy fruity hoppy, sweet-ish, minimally sugary, oaty and slightly wheaty malty basis, notes of lemon, limoncello, some zesty bitterness, lemon peel, a touch of yuzu, honey, orange, mandarine; later some herbal aspects as well, mint, a touch of eucalyptus.
Oily texture, fairly smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Rich, complex and developing, oscillating; in doing so at all time balanced, (re-)fresh(ing), intense - great.

440ml can. Hazy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Intense, uicy, citrusy and tropical fruity, minimalyl perfumed, hoppy aroma, wheaty and oaty malty background, notes of orange, mandarine, mango, passion fruit, grassy-resinous overtones of hemp. Taste is slightly bitter and grassy, fruity hoppy, pale and wheaty malty, minimally oaty malty basis, somehow "neutral", sweet-ish, pulpy fruity ground layer (melon, grapes and the like), tropical and minimally citrusy fruity hoppy hints of orange, mandarine, mango, minimally bitter-leafy undertones; a minimally alcoholic touch throughout, a tad more alcohol with minimally warming effect in the finish.
Slightly creamy and oily, dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium to fine, dense, soft, mildly prickly carbonation.
Very intense, very fruity, a tad too alcoholic - good.

750ml bottle. Clear, yellow-ish, faint golden colour with small, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Tangy, yeasty funky and minimally herbal aroma, widely disguised, minimally strawy, pale malty background, notes of brine, mustard seed, dill, a touch of marjoram, tarragon, juniper, white balsamico, grapefruit rind, oaky overtones. Taste is tart, tangy, funky yeasty, minimally fruity and herbal, minimally tannic, pale malty basis with low residual sweetness, notes of brine, white balsamico, a touch of dill, mustard seed, juniper unripe kiwi fruit, some oak, a touch of grapefruit rind.
Oily-watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy on the lips, rather astringent on palate and in the gullet, medium to fine, prickly carbonation.
Complex, fairly balanced (though quite astringent) - pretty decent but simply not my cup of tea.
