Bottled. Pale yellow colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is rubber, hops, malts and a bit earthy. Flavour is much the same. Not a very good one, but not the worst either.
Bottle Hazy, orange/yellow body. Frothy white, rocky head. Ok lace. Nose of citrus, hops, grains, ... quite fresh but not intense. The carbonated mouth feel is the first thing to mention when you take a sip. Lightly bitter flavour of hops, citrus, oranges. Tastes like a alcoholic faint orange juice with water and malts added, but not in a tremendeously bad or sweet way. Not bad, but not interesting either.
