330 ml dark brown bottle. A strong blonde, with barley malt, sugar and wheat starch.
It pours a bit violently, but it barks and does not bite. 3-4 finger head is gone in no time. Medium carbonation, fast fading out.
The nice golden amber colour might be the best thing about this beer.
Smell, vanilla, orange peel and a little bit of ashtray,
Taste: something orangy in there, way too sweet, skunky malts surpressed.
Mothfeel: unballanced, too fat.
Too much abv for the taste. To sweet
I know at least 10-20 beers in this category that are better.
Based on the first bottle I would have rated it a 1.0, BUt second bottle shows some effort and reveals a bit of taste.
My advice: this year, do not buy, Next year, you might try.
