Foul? Funky? Not sure but it is a bit weird.
It is supposed to be peppermint, which, let’s admit, you get to a certain extent in the aroma, along with some sour smell as well. My wife said it is like grapefruit, she didn’t get the mint. The taste is the same, not really sure where it is going, I’d like to think of it as a sour ale, but then there’s this extra something to it that makes it feel… weird. Then you’d want to make it feel pepperminty but then it doesn’t. And the taste kind of lets you down halfway, when it leaves you with - almost no taste?
But surprisingly, despite all this, it is still very easy to drink and goes down pretty fast. It felt quite nice to drink it, honestly not sure why. But it was.
Altogether, this was the strangest one from Ikea’s series of low alcohol beers. Still, I have seen Stranger Things so… (okay, sorry, that was too lame for a joke, I know…)
