I had this beer on-tap at the brewery in Balatonvilágos in a straight-sided glass.

Appearance: medium orange hue with a moderate haze and a thick cap of white foam that leaves a nice lace on the glass.

Smell: malty with a citrusy hop element, but also something a little sour that seems inappropriate and out of place.

Taste: lightly toasty malt with an earthy, citrusy hop character; sadly, that unwelcome sour element remains.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: this beer is flavorful, but does have some serious flaws. I might wonder if it has been infected, but considering this beer was served on tap at the brewery itself, there's no chance of third-party mishandling or anything like that. It's conceivable that this sour note (but really not in a good way) is what they were going for, but if that's the case, it very much does not work for me.

Pours a dark amber, coppery color with big, fluffy head.

Smells of grassy leaves, tangerine peel and lemon pulp with a hint of a resinous sweetness.

Drinks very smooth with a bubbly, refreshing, light bodied finish among a light body, which produces a malt balanced breadiness among grassy hops.

Tastes of a bubbly stone minerality and white bread malts, which lend a soothing quality to crisp lemon peel and wet grass. A bit too effervescent, numbing the subtle hops a little, with a watery maltiness coming up.

Nice during the beginning with a unfitting high carbonation, numbing the light body of this.
