    Hazy brown, fluffy tan head. sweet malty aroma of toffee, chocolate, nuts with sweaty yeasty tones. Light "muddy" flavour of caramel, light chocolate. Light bodied for it’s size. Plastic mouthfeel with sharp carbonattion. Short grassy aftertaste.

    Cloudy amber with a huge off-white head. Nice spicey, malty and caramel aroma. Sweet and fruity taste at first turning malty and lightly bitter in the finish. Medium bodied; quite a carbonated mouthfeel. It might be lacking some balance, but still pretty good.
