look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Pours a clear yellow with some fine foam.

Smell is fruity with some sweet malt and some clementine.

Taste is quite sweet to start, with some malty notes leading into a grassy, floral bitterness with just a hint of tin. Balanced, but not overly exciting.

Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.

Overall, a decent, drinkable ale, but not very exciting.

The colour is pale yellow; the liquid clear. The three fingers head is white and compact; it sinks slowly down leaving thick lacing on the glass.

The smell is fresh with smooth semi-sweet notes of bread. Floral hops, mango chutney, lemon and lime.

The taste is bitter-sweet with passing exotic fruits, French loaf, lime candy and some spicy perfume. Medium body. Some clean alcohol in the aftertaste, earthy hints, growing fruity bitterness and dense malty sweetness. Old-fashion fruit candy in the sweet finish.

The carbonation is medium strong, the many small bubbles are long-lived and fresh. The liquid is a bit sticky.

Pleasant hops in this “German APA”, but it is way too sweet.
