With a high alcohol content of 9% combined with a good mix of hops and malt it is absolutely a delight to drink. Once poured it reveals a lovely cloudy golden yellow/orange color and its foam is smooth but steady, giving an impression of calm.. A strong taste of alcohol strengthens its fruity aroma. It also has excellent digestive qualities.
