Copenhagen 10/1 2026. 75 cl bottle from Kihoskh, Sønder Boulevard, Kbh. V. Simple white label with the logos of the two involved breweries in gold and a couple of Laias.

Pours opaque unclear golden orange with a big white head. A bit bubbly. Settles as paper thin and patchy layer of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is fairly intense with a sweet malty odor mingling with a tart and a little citrus scent. Funky notes. Peach and orange. Citrus and lemon. Tart gooseberries. Sour cheese.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, smooth, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is fairly intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a slightly stronger tart sourness. Aftertaste is bitter with a light sweet undertone. Lingers for a while. Finish is dry with a vibe of alcohol.

Potent and tart Saison.
